Tiny Humour Splash #7

Is This the Best Malapropism Ever?

A short post to make you laugh

The character: Anne, my cleaning lady, who chain-smoked Superking cigarettes and looked about 100 from the age of 52 when I first met her. She cleaned with me for three decades. I use the term “cleaned” loosely.

I have always hesitated to tell anyone about some of Anne’s malapropisms. It always felt as if we might be laughing AT her rather than with her.

But she is dead now, so I reckon she will feel all fuzzy, warm, and connected to the Universe and won’t give a toss. Plus, she can’t sue me.

Note from my diary: Anne was worried about her eyes today. She said, “I’ve got a friend who has got that immaculate degeneration, and I think I might have it too.”

Never miss another humour bomb.
