BIRMINGHAM - Across the country, metaphors are becoming true due to lack of vocabulary in citizens.
The average person has roughly 5000 words in their vocabulary, with university students having 8000, and chavs having fifteen.

Of course, this literary weirdness is not limited to English lessons.

The set was then demolished by a giant robot on the loose.
