Well now you see the picture you're probably thinking - "I have been conned"
maybe you were hoping to be insulted.? :-)

Anyway - they do rather nice Bacon burgers.... The guy keeps some bacon on the side all the time so you always get a nice crispy bit and you can have mushrooms as well as onions if you like... :-)

Munch munch!!... Erm? were was I? ..... oh yeah lots of words have different meanings - they are called Homographs

So people use homographs a lot in Advertising - to get your attention.

Stuffed can mean lots of things... but the most common use of "Get Stuffed" I would think is "shut up" or "get knotted" or a few others I perhaps shouldn't write.
Get stuffed is like the last thing you might say in a heated discussion (argument) before you walk away in disgust.

Of course "I am really Stuffed" is another way of saying "I have had a lot of food" or even "my stomach is absolutely stuffed"

Can you think of any other examples of this?

Belt up!
- meaning to be quiet (not so politely)
- as a seatbelt campaign slogan.
