Just an eggcorn that amused me.
This morning, I was sent a link that brought a smile. Definitely well timed.
An eggcorn is the practice of mistakenly replacing an unusual word (often archaic) with something phonetically similar. "Baited breath" is a fine example, as is "reeking havok".
Staples (UK), sells padded envelopes. On the details page, they helpfully add...
These padded postal bags are the ideal choice for those items that need that added protection, or for that extra piece of mind.
Making things easier for Igors the world over.

You know, some people should just be shot. In multiple locations.
Take, for example, the man who purchases drinks for a group of women.
One wakes, 12 hours later, with no memory past the first drink. And is still dizzy and nauseous with an erratic pulse 12 hours after that.
Please, be careful. Its spring break, and the assholes are out.

Goodnight, Michael.
Little Mike, the staffodshire cross has left.
He'd been blind for several years, the dementia finally robbed him of all the tricks he used to get around.
You really couldn't have asked for a better dog. Even if he did steal the duck eggs.

Why is it...?
The dog acts dumb. She appears innocent and joyful, and about as cunning as a stump.
The dog is not fooling me for a minute.
She has figured out the pedal on the kitchen trash. This has lead to all sorts of mess.
Unfortunately, due to her very delicate stomach, its a projectile mess.
Why is it that it must always be the carpet?
