"CHECK ENGINE" DASHBOARD WARNING TO BE REPLACED WITH LARGER "HOLY #@%&#!!!" LIGHT

Recent research conducted by someone recently showed that 75% of drivers ignore a glowing CHECK ENGINE dashboard warning, a conclusion that has prompted automakers to not only increase the size of the lamp, but to also change its wording to HOLY #@%&#!!!

"We wanted to get people's attention," explained automotive safety expert "Tootles" Quaid, who confirmed that, as far as he knows, Randy, who is no relation, is still holed up in Canada.  When asked what word is represented by #@%&#!!!, Quaid appeared confused and began trembling.  "I think it's 'Criminy,' but I'm not sure," he replied before complaining of stomach distress and rushing from the room.

DESPITE AUTOMAKERS' ACTIONS, PARKSPLUG TO REPLACE #@%&#!!! WITH

 “<>?{}! TO REPRESENT CURSE WORDS

Ignoring widespread outrage from their four followers, editors for insipid automotive blog Parksplug are vowing to forge ahead with their plan to replace  “#@%&#!” with “<>?{}! to represent curse words.  

Lunabird Fiskermacher, the co-chair of Parksplug's Lexicology Department, said the time for change is nigh.   “The time for change is nigh," she said, adding, "#@%&#! has been used for far too long.  We considered other options, such as 
‘:-+),’ which looked too much like Kiefer Sutherland after sucking on a lemon, and ‘FFFFF,’ which was easy to type but opposed by the Fraternity of Future Farmers, Fire Fighters and Frackers.”

Despite the complaints, Fiskermacher defiantly vowed the controversial change will occur soon.  “We worked very hard to try to make everyone happy. Those who aren’t can kiss my <>?{}!.”
