Funny cut-off Twitter

As a fan of surreal absurd humour, I love unintentional funnies that result from text being cut off or truncated at just the wrong place.

For instance, the "Doomsday Cod" - visions of small fish weaving menacingly towards you... you'll never get awaaaaaay!

I just spotted another one today, pictured above, where Twitterfox cut off text from a Twitter update (tweet, twitter, twit or whatever you wanna call it).

For screenreaders & search indexing bots - it said:

"Airbag jacket 'could save lives': Dozens of lives could be saved every year if motorbike airbag jackets were mad.."
