  9. You’ve buttered your bread. Now SLEEP in it!
1409

[Uh, that’s a mixed metaphor, not a Spoonerism.]

1410

spoonerism, definition: a verbal error in which a speaker accidentally transposes the initial sounds or letters of two or more words, often to humorous effect, as in the sentence
you have hissed the mystery lectures, accidentally spoken instead of the intended sentence
you have missed the history lectures.
(Emphasis mine)

That should rule out these:[del]**

  • A bottle in front of me
  • Many thinkle peep so.[/del] (Many people think so — swaps the words and then also initial sounds. Not a spoonerism. But ‘Many theeple pink so’ would be. [del]
  • You’ve buttered your bread. Now SLEEP in it!**[/del]

OK, fixing…
