I love malapropisms. Was watching Back to the Future II tonight. Biff had some dandys. "Why don't you make like a tree and get out of here?" was my fave.

Not quite the same thing,
but a friend of mine was shopping for shoes when he heard this loud-mouth guy telling his girlfriend...

"I really can't stand Sauconys. I don't know why, I just have a real affinity for them."

Jaybird! It's jaybird.

Well, perhaps you know more about the jailbirds being naked.

My oh so intelligent cow orker (with the easy bake oven master's degree) sat in a meeting with her nose high in the air as she explained that it was correct "for all intensive purposes."

When I was a youngster (about 20), my g/f Libby and I went out on the piss one night and then went back to her parents place where she was living at the time. As we snuck down the side of the house (and I gracefully fell into the garden), we managed to make our way to the back patio which Libby's Dad had filled with hanging baskets of plants and climbers and all manner of greenery. When we were in the midst of it, Libby pipes up and says, "look at all my Dad's erotic plants".

I just about pissed myself laughing.
