A WebmasterWorld thread asks why is Google showing him a really long description for some of the pages of his site. I reported back a while ago at Search Engine Watch a post by Philipp where he spotted this over at Сплог, here is a screen shot from over there.

Matt Cutts of Google did reply to Philipp over here saying that he was unable to reproduce the error, and neither can I.

But this is the first thread I saw about it over at WebmasterWorld .
