When it comes to home repairs, financial operations, and general tinkering, my husband is quite the pro. But when it comes to language, the results can be hilarious. Here are a few examples:
While cleaning up the garage:
"Why did you write 'PLUM' on that box?"
"It's short form."
"For what?"
"Plumbing."
General comments:
"That sticks out like a sore eye-thumb."
And my favourite...
"It worked like a glove."
what was the one with banshees?
ReplyDeleteI believe it was "This steak's as tender as a banshee."
ReplyDeleteThanks for reminding me. I will add it to the next installment. :)
ReplyDeleteWasn't it tasty as a banshee?
ReplyDeleteWe need more. I so wish I remembered some of the choice sayings.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, we should start a dictionary! This is too funny. I too wish I could remember some of those comments. We'll have to walk around with pens and paper to write them down whenever we come across a new one.
