Whilst out delivering today, I drove past a car yard, and nearly smacked myself into a pole! Why you may ask? May have something to do with my attention being drawn to the car that I saw in the yard. Not too sure of the model, but it was the supra before the mza70 one, like the celica on steriods.
Funny thing this, just goes to show how much car yards try to rip you off, it was dead stock AND LISTED FOR TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS!!! Can almost buy a half decent soarer for that. What is with these crazy caryard crackers?
Funnier thing is that there'll be someone stoooopid enough to pay that

Went past it again today, just a plain jane stock celica supra. Then again, this guy is tied up with the wrecker that quoted me $20 more for a '97+ front bar than toyota wants for a new one!
FOOLS!!!

I knew what you meant, Sigmund Pen.
The Freudian slip is named after Sigmund Freud, who described the phenomenon he called faulty action (Fehlleistung or parapraxis) in his 1901 book The Psychopathology of Everyday Life.
The Freudian slip is an error in human action, speech or memory that is believed to be caused by the unconscious mind. Some errors, such as a woman accidentally calling her husband with another man's name, seem to represent relatively clear cases of Freudian slips. In other cases, the error might appear to be trivial, bizarre or even nonsensical, but shows some deeper significance on analysis. Freud gives several such examples in Psychopathology; the analysis is often quite lengthy and complex, as was the case with many of the dreams in 'The Interpretation of Dreams.
Popularization of the term has diluted its technical meaning in some contexts to include any slip-of-the-tongue phenomenon, often in an attempt by the user to humorously assign hidden motives or sexual innuendo to the mistake. It is not clear, however, what Freud considered an "innocent" mistake, or if he thought that there were any innocent mistakes. The enormous quantity of slips analyzed in Psychopathology, many of which are banal or apparently trivial, would seem to indicate that Freud felt almost any seemingly tiny slip or hesitation would respond to analysis. Although the phrase "sometimes a cigar is just a cigar" is often attributed to him (meaning that some mistakes are innocent, that some putative phallic symbols are not actually phallic symbols), it does not appear in any of his writings, and may very well be apocryphal.

Oi Ben
As David would quite correctly advise- did you mean" Whilst you're there, Steve, I've been having these dreams and hearing these weird noises in my head....
Doctor:" Ben,perhaps you need another two spark plugs!"

Ahhh, yes, the benefits of a National meet [so that various identities can get together and learn to understand each other and realise that nothing is that serious]

Only an extra 2 sparkies? Maybe another 6, got to take a 5.7L V12 BMW 850 out for a fang last night. After having a mild stroke after being offered a drive in such a sweet car, I had a heart attack when I planted my foot. JEEZUS, has that thing got some serious power. According to the RSM (more rsm's than commonwhores these days!) 0-100 came up in 4.5s. Not to mention that you just can't beat the sound of a decent V12 screaming it's head off. For 1/2 hour, I was in heaven
