369 THE GOOSE DRANK WINE THE MONKEY THREW THE TICKET FROM THE "SWEET CAROLINE"

people using why instead of while / whilst
e.g.
"I'm going to the toilet why i wait for the kettle to boil."

A couple more - someone who refers to a 'click' rather than a 'clique' and the one that really rattles me "The proof is in the pudding" NO! NO! NO! It's "The proof of the pudding is in the eating" damnit!

"A year has passed since I broke my nose.
Message in a bottle..."

I used to work with a lad who used to sing while he worked and one line he used to sing was"LIVING ON A SEA FOOD CHICKEN" As opposed to "living on a free food ticket"

Old guy at work has said this to me 3 times now.

"It's not rocking horse science is it?"

oh why do birds go on singing?dont say No its the end of the world

The use of the word 'commentary' to describe Stevo's unintelligible ramblings

Talking of Stevo... 'it's a try for mine'

This thread got me thinking about Bushism's, amongst which are;
"If the terriers and bariffs are torn down, this economy will grow."
"They misunderestimated me."
"I'm going to put people in my place, so when the history of this administration is written at least there's an authoritarian voice saying exactly what happened."

That got me looking at other famous gaffes.
Was particulary amused by Irish soccer commentator George Hamilton in an Ireland V Spain qualifier match. "He’s pulling him off. The Spanish manager is pulling his Captain off!”
...and in a similar vein that old Brian Johnston classic, "The bowler's Holding, the batsman's Willey" on a BBC Radio Test Match Special.

I once told an MP that something was opening a tin of beans, instead, of course, of a can of worms.

its not elephant its a giraffe

Another lad I used to work with used to come out with some beauties.He was once left in charge of the job and he said"the gaffer put me in charge and said here you lad these are the keys to Tandoori's box".Also he once said "someones been spreading secret rumours"

A guy I used to work with would say "We need to nip this in the butt"

Another on is "I won you"

I always like "I'm not being racist but...<something pretty racist>"
