To hate the misuse of words such as 'erudite'?

[TheDevilWearsPrimark]

malapropism is another often abused word, often incorrectly spelt.

Is it a bandwagon thing and an attempt to make posts look more smarter.

ahem newsprits read the thread in full before bringing out the snorts.

I have thanks, it's still well funny. (snorts louder)

In all seriousness though, are you ok? You seem rather spiky today.

I would laugh but I would be accused of being in a quiche

I think DWP might be having a go at me, as I used malapropism yesterday on a thread. However, I'm sure I used it appropriately...

fumf, don't self aggrandise, there's a dear.

This thread is making me laugh now. Including "weirdly rude".

I have read the whole of it, I promise. And searched all threads for "malapropism". Amazing how many people get their malapropisms and their spoonerisms muddled. Tsk tsk.

Is that a new pram I've not heard of hun?

Well I used it on this thread and no one noticed - sigh

I'd rather be a fish and chip shop LL

Ah, TDWP, sorry you are having a stressful time of it.

And be full of things in batter .

Or just batter on to you all

DWP - I would never self aggrandise in public I'm a nice girl, I am. And it makes you go blind....
