A Viscous Attack # 3

[Catspace]

Ding, ding, round 3 of the highly entertaining collection of misspellings, misuse and general bastardisation of language. The floor is youre’s x

I noticed a poster had waited herself at home and was worried about a discrepancy between her scales and the ones at the GP's surgery.

Surely you mean a vicose circle of stress

The newsreader on R4 last night said the bridge pusher was arrested for grievious bodily harm. A professional newsreader!

@SueBlime ,who was the newsreader? When was it said. Complain to the BBC. Make A Complaint | Contact the BBC

That's dreadful. On a par with "mischeeevious"

Indeed @SchnizelVonKrumm , maybe she hadn't heard the word prevously

I can't remember @AlbieJiggered , it was either the 7 o'clock headlines or the 6 o'clock half hour programme.

Waiting for the pounds to drop off?

I have made a screenshot of this ‘Movie Blog’ because it needs to be seen to be believed !

Who says letters don't get transposed?

whoops looks like my screenshot won’t upload but they said ‘Mellow Drama’

I don't know why mine's not showing. It was a screenshot of the credits from an old tv series.

A character called Oilvia.

Talking of newsreaders: this is a slightly different type of complaint, but recently I’m noticing news - events which have already happened - being reported in the present tense. Is this new? I wish they’d stop it.

Mine is showing now (it was a great film which is why I was researching after viewing) what was your TV Series

It was from Kizzy (Kizzy (TV series) - Wikipedia)

@AlbieJiggered oh I’ve not heard of that (and I have watched A LOT) of TV !

I'm sure it's not the first time and won't be the last but I saw this one today.

Greasy spoons and fry ups make me physically wretch.

^^

I heard ‘restauranteur’ on Radio 4 the other day. I was shocked.

Confession- I thought that was right!

Ah, an honest pedant 🤗

Hands up who hasn't discovered they were wrong (sitting on my hands)

Me too, I hang my head in shame. However, I offer something I came across the other day - I can't find it again, unfortunately - a poster with husband issues who felt like a "boiled dog".

Someone reviewing a book on Irish myths and fairy tales on Amazon wrote “I am a fan of Irish folk law.”

Saw 'there fairs' on a local SM site today. It mentioned TfL.

There was a mention of a ‘cricket empire’ on a thread yesterday..

That could be true

Someone on an AIBU thread hates “being molly cuddled”.

Maybe she should tell Molly her cuddles don’t suit.
