DM> The rich bear the brunt of a exclusive Porshe Cayenne?
If you were in a humorous mood and went with your wife to a
grocery, where you bought 60 liters of milk, and, 50 liters
being your absolute carrying capacity, you gave 10 to your
wife, then I think you might joke that you bare the brunt of
the purchase :-)
Now when I have written it, that paragraph feels ungrammati-
cal to me. Is it?
