Spoonerisms

I worked with a fellow who mangled his sentences so often that I started writing them down.  If I can find those handwritten pages I will post some. For now, please enjoy the classic spoonerism (translation below in small text.)

"You have hissed all my mystery lectures, and were caught fighting a liar in the quad. Having tasted two worms, you will leave by the next town drain."


(You have missed all my history lectures, and were caught lighting a fire in the quad. Having wasted two terms, you will leave by the next town train.)

  1. My Mum has a touch of the spoonerisms. For example her favourite actor at the moment is Freegan Morman.
