When words fail us
I found this compilation on Snopes' Urban Legends Reference site. All of these are collected examples from when people on the internet let the English language get away from them a little bit.
If marcopolo were still here, I'd dare him to read these without laughing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From the "Not only was it sorted, it was collated too" file: Only after he realized we caught him red handed, he told me the entire sorted story of why he did what he did. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From the "Once the chickens have flown the coop" file: I have my company attorney trying to get in touch with her to re-coop my foolish and negligent loss. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From the "Global affairs" file: ...and they have this world wind romance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From the "He might not be much to look at, but at least he's honest" file: Once I open the door to the room, she was in my arms, legs around my waste. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From the "Kinkos or K-Mart?" file: Man.. I'm really starting to love this game! It's kinda like the girl next store. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From the "When one of those half-hearted gals just won't do" file: But for all intensive purposes she has a good reputation and the gents who see her adore her. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From the "Las Vegas offers three-play, five-play, ten-play, fifty-play, and hundred-play video poker, but some people still aren't satisfied" file: There was no four play so I was not feeling very turned on. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From the "Too much Wonder Woman will do that to you" file: The autopsy revealed that Kevin had died from a heroine overdose. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From the "Fear of wild drumming" file: What if someone in your household called this number? Will there be negative percussions? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From the "You mean there was vanity before the Material Girl hit the scene?" file: She has a pre-Madonna complex. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From the "It's slippery and expensive" file: I heard that if you played Stairway to Heaven backwords, it says something about Satin.
