Reminds me of the story told by Jeanne Robertson about the time she sent her husband (whom she calls "left brain") to the store with a numbered grocery list.

He came home with
1 dozen eggs
2 gallons of milk
3 boxes of cheerios
4 packages of bacon

◯ gallons of milk
◯ boxes of cheerios
◯ packages of bacon

I don't get how the numbers can be anything but multipliers here. @Swamp Thing's list illustrates this, as it makes no sense to write

I think we are to understand that the actual list looked like

1 eggs
2 milk
3 cheerios
4 bacon

And the list in phinds' post is what the guy came home with. Presumably, he filled in the units for each quantity according to his best judgement.

And the premise of my own feeble joke is that if it was a list with circle bullets, he would have come home with zero of each item.
