mondegreen

Mondegreen: a misinterpretation of a word or phrase that has been heard, especially a song lyric.


OMG, there is a word for that song, Blinded by the Light, Manfred Mann. I swear, every time I hear that song, it sounds like, "Blinded by the light, revved up and douching in the middle of the night."

Nuns and crosses

Sorry I've been slacking off. It's going to get worse. I'm going to London & Paris in a couple of weeks.

A joke I heard:

A car full of Irish nuns is sitting at a traffic light in downtown Dublin, when a bunch of rowdy drunks pull up alongside of them.
"Hey, show us yer teets, ya bloody penguins!" shouts one of the drunks.
Quite shocked, Mother Superior turns to Sister Mary Immaculata and says, "I don't think they know who we are; show them your cross."

Sister Mary Immaculata rolls down her window and shouts, "Piss off, ya fookin' little wankers, before I come over there and rip yer balls off!"
Sister Mary Immaculata then rolls up her window, looks back at Mother Superior, quite innocently, and asks, "Did that sound cross enough?

It's worth listening to the whole bit, but this is my favorite part:
"I before E except after C, and when sounding like A, as in neighbor and weigh. And weekends and holidays and all throughout May. And you'll always be wrong, no matter what you say."
