It reminds me of the way Dad likes to play with words, calling multiple moose meeses and multiple houses hice. Or saying something is an optical delusion and calling his office the orifice (one of my all-time favorites).
When Zeke was first born, Adam said he looked just like Gollum, kind of grayish and wrinkly, so I already had the Lord of the Rings connection. The moment I saw how this picture came out, I thought of Gollum and his eyeses; Zeke had just stopped coughing, too, so the metaphor was complete and my Lord of the Rings moment is preserved forever. **smiles**

ReplyDeleteLaughing at the first paragraph, I'm always saying deers...drives my husband crazy!

ReplyDeleteWow... I find it amusing that my family (esp MY Dad) also takes all of your aforementioned linguistic liberties, except for hice.
ReplyDeleteI will add one of my personal favorites: taking a cue from wind-->wound, I like mind-->mound. As in "She should have just mound her own business".
