English-o-metrics

Use of a mathematical model in the English language.

It is customary to write items in a series with required articles. For example, we write 'a book, a pen, a rubber and a bag'. Mathematically speaking, the article 'a' is common to all the items. So put in a mathematical format, it would be like 'a (book, pen, rubber and bag)' and would be 'a book, pen, rubber and bag' with the removal of brackets/parentheses. (However, mathematics does not allow this.) Both expressions are acceptable.

Suppose we write 'a book, a pen, an erasure and a bag'. Here, the article 'a' cannot be taken as a common factor because there is 'an' before 'erasure'. So it would be wrong to say 'a book, pen, erasure and bag'.
English-o-metrics is a hypothetical branch of linguistics.

Bag o Sorrys

When someone takes something of worth from you and gives you back a bag filled with little pieces of paper that read " Sorry".
I took my Bag o Sorrys to the car dealership man to buy a new car, and he said they have no value! He also said they are a currency from insane people.

Typ så hä' A... ...o sen

A certain special kid in south of Sweden once in a school presentation stated an unnecessary phrase.
His friends were talking in the presentation and he felt he had to add something to it. but didn't really know exactly what to say so he said some incoherent bullshit and those words were "Typ så hä' A... ..o sen".
Dude1 - Men om du kanske gör det på detta sättet istället?
Dude2 - Du menar Typ så hä' A... ...o sen eller?
Dude1 - Ja precis!
