  I don’t think either of these would be very fun for the woman they’re attached to…

  So glad you asked! There are different types with different names, but the traditional spoonerism is where you switch the first consonant sounds of two different words. The example above is baco tell, which is the spoonerism of Taco Bell.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Healthy eating⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Reddit has such a tiny, sad little spoonerism community. If we can infect all of Lemmy with it then I’ll be pleased.

  I’m not the only one! I drive people crazy in conversations because they’ll be talking to me, and instead of keeping the conversation going I just repeat back what they say as spoonerisms. Also, backwards speak. When my brother and I were little we would be bored lying in bed unable to sleep so we would have conversations saying every word backwards and then try to figure out what the other was saying. We got pretty good at it to the point that my brain processes a lot of what people say backwards and forwards. I’m not as quick about it as I used to be, though.

  This is one of my favorites because it grosses my kids out when I say it

  Also, if we’re including food ingredients:

  Noooo, this story can make me cry just thinking about it! Putting it in middle school textbooks was evil. Still one of my favorite shirt stories, though.

  That’s grammatically correct in the neck of the woods I grew up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon goes questing⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, for sure. It’s good and necessary work, just not good for the person doing it, unfortunately.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon goes questing⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oof, that sounds like a shitty job. CNA or equivalent? I hear those jobs often lead to disability as well, having to lift patients regularly and such.

  Tetsuo, is that you?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Armadillo⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In that case,I don’t think arming a dillo is a great idea.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Always there when you need it⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I prefer peanut butter and banana, personally.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am the thing that goes *thump* 'Fuck!' in the night⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Reminds me of when my build in Minecraft doesn’t quite line up as I had imagined and I’m too lazy to fix it. Guess that happens in real life, too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What produced the old dead channel tv static audiovisuals on tvs?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m glad I’m not the only one. I remember people calling it “the ant race” when I was little (very early 90s), but no one seems to recall this.

  Well there’s a song I’ve not heard in a while, and one I’ve never seen referenced on the Internet. Kudos!
