Malapropisms
A malapropism is loosely defined as the wrong use of a word or term, with the outcome often turning out funny.
Examples: Jesus healed the leopards Making a mountain out of a mole hole The worm's on the other foot now You take me for granite Pacifically (specifically) That butch is a wolf in cheap clothing Ask an elderly person what's new. You'll probably hear a malapropism within a few minutes. Share your favorites... |

Rene and i have a good friend who is notorious for these.
My favorite so far is "75% half off sale". Guess it really isn't a malapropism but it is funny.

 A malapropism would be more like,"Look who's calling the kettle back!" |

True story ....... my sister-in-law was speaking to her mother about me ..... "Mum, did you hear about Deb's autopsy?" Apparently there was dead silence for a few seconds before her Mum said "Autopsy? Are you sure? Deb's on her way over for a cup of tea!" lolol
Deb - who still drinks
