Two days ago I went to a meetup to answer questions on Intel Galileo board and software. As always, there were many questions regarding positioning of Galileo vs RasPi and BBB.

One funny thing there was that there was a lady advertising a maker's fair in Munich, saying that "Even normal ppl are welcomed there, not just engineers". After some of ~80 engineers at the meetup started laughing, she had repeated the phrase twice :)
On my way home I've overheard a part of a funny conversation: One big Russian guy to another: "Kolyan, you must be kidding ('да ты гонишь!'), it can't be that Toyota is manufacturing Lexuses! Toyota only produces simple cars for ordinary ppl('для лохов'), and Lexus is a cool Japanese car('крутая японская тачка') for cool men ('правильных пацанов')".
