Spoonerisms (wasSuperficiality and repressed anger OT)

April 28, 2002

Yea...I should have specified that the spoonerism is best only applied to the "curd" and the "tart". I was creasing in the queue at the shop today and I'm sure that this confirmed everyone's suspicion that I am, in fact, insane.

Which beginings of the words would you switch round, Temon Lurd Cart, or Cemon Turd Lart? Apart from Turd and Cart, these made up words don't make sense to me!

I don't know if this is on par with your concern, Jules, but I quite often say what I really feel when people ask me how I'm doing or when they say "good morning". It's off-putting to some, but others are amused by it. As long as it doesn't take much time, I don't think that most people care. Honesty's important...and I'm not always a cumpy grunt! )

(anyone ever pondered the spoonerism for "Lemon Curd Tart"???)

It doesn't make me angry when people say 'nice to meet you' i just find it unreasonable, unemotional, illogical and robotic, and I don't have a problem with people saying it, I'm just wondering if they'd have a problem with me saying 'not really' or 'is it?' in reply.
