| 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!

| 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 used to hear a lot of me and I being used the wrong way round but the latest one, "for mine" is the use of Myself instead of ME.
Where did that come from? People seem to think that saying myself sounds posher........but it's wrong!
"If you could give that to myself today I would appreciate it"
