Subject: RE: BS: malapropisms
My mother-in-law has a hunchback car and semi-skilled milk, plays viveo tapes and sometimes it seems like every other word is mangled - so much so that we've stopped logging them. In our house we still eat frickled injuns because my neice couldn't manage to say pickled onions when she first began to talk about 37 years ago. We just prefer the alternative version - so long as they are the extra strong variety!
