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

Today, in a comment on a newspaper article about Trump and Putin, “Pees in a pod and all that.” Gives a somewhat different impression from that intended!

May I humbly present “tears of cake.”

ChatGPT may eventually evolve into a machine that kills us all, but for right now, it’s great for things like this.

Scott Mills has been described as an “annoying little scrott”. Scrote anyone?

Yesterday, twice in the same post, the Straight of Hormuz. Then repeated by someone else responding to the post.

@maudelovesharold Tee hee

"strat of humouz" on a FB thread about panic buying of fuel.

Ladies…i give you Klass Meijer.

I work on the railway, and animals frequently (and fatally) wander onto the tracks.

One of the recent incidents said there was a ‘smoking badger’.

My god, it took all my energy not to ask Co-pilot to create a Badger/Sherlock Holmes hybrid.

A smoking badger? Did he wander onto the tracks for a quick puff on his cigarette, I wonder

Well, he wasn’t smoking before he went trackside. 😬 🦡

"Off my own back" is trotted out quite often (or off ten).

From mnhq today:

Minister for Children and Families, Olivia Bailey wants to hear from you

So Olivia Bailey wants to hear from the Minister for Children and Families. Don't know why she couldn't pick up the phone, instead of putting it out on Mumsnet.

Yes, punctuation does matter.

Anyone with verifocal glasses?

I was going to correct the OP on that thread but I felt a bit mean

@LeftBoobGoneRogue Indeed. Think “Eats shoots and leaves”

Something I've seen a few times recently: carnt. As in 'I carnt get to the shop until tomorrow'.

Reign it in.

Family riffs. I've seen this a few times lately and just now on another MN thread. It makes me think of a family all playing electric guitars.

Is that a tiff that’s degenerated into a rift?😂

Oh yes, I bet it is! 😂

Just read about the possibility of a military coo in the US if Trump wants to use nuclear weapons against Iran.
Are there pigeons in the US military?

Are the pigeons just going to crap all over the Americans in retaliation?

We are having a 'Parents Week' at work soon, and the missing apostrophe is bugging the bejesus out of me!

That’ll be the sound of the pigeons coming home to roost.

Why do some say antisemetic, instead of anti semitic? Broadcasters and newsreaders are guilty of this too!

🤣🤣🤣

They've done it to be inclusive perhaps so as not to offend those who think Parents' might mean only parents who come in couples.

Maybe the apostrophe has been stolen.
