Note to self: Do not say "rug munchers" when you mean "rug rats."

*snort* If you said it to a member of the clergy, bonus points. Triple if it was to the rugrats' parents.

AnnLarimer, you are currently my primary source of joy.

*dies of laughter*

Yeah, they are a wee bit different...

Awesome.

Soooo tempted to metaquote that one.

[coreopsis.livejournal.com]

whoops. That's even worse than the time I mistakenly said "she jumped my bones" instead of "she jumped my case".

OMG WHAT IS THAT IN YOUR ICON!?

I'd never heard the phrase "rug munchers." I had to look it up. Er . . . *yes*, I see what you mean.

Jude Law w/Nicole Kidman's hindparts in Cold Mountain. :D

*sporfle, snork, sporfle*

Priceless, Ann, priceless.

::ahem:: I believe the correct term for the former is "carpet munchers."

[comice.livejournal.com]

Oh, dear.

This is just one more reason why I love you. NEVER CHANGE, ANN.

Your mortification has brought me a very much-needed laugh. I hope that's at least some consolation.

I've been trying to decide if that'd be called a catachresis, a malapropism, or a good ol'-fashioned Freudian slip (aka parapraxis). The words for using the wrong word are the very best words of all.

Why not?

I figure anyone dealing with rug munchers rats all day needs a good laugh.

[eyebrowofdoom.livejournal.com]

I don't see why.

Ann Larimer is always a source of joy for me! And now, thanks to your icon, so are Nicole Kidman's hind parts.

My gosh. Two great tastes that taste great together.
