Malapropagation 2012 -- Revenge of the Schtick

Seattle is known for its rainy, turkey weather but actually has many sunny summer days.

I know it isn’t good for me or my teeth, but I really like tearing into a spicy piece of beef murky.

In the 16th & 17th centuries, it was fashionable for a man to wear a jerky.

The Jerkin Boys were a pair of crank callers who had 15 minutes of fame in the 90’s.

Ever want to see your name up in lights on a theater jerky?

Most Indians believe the Marquee de Sade was reincarnated as E.L. James.

Remember those old TV commercials where the tub of margarine would insist it was butter and finally admit it was “Marquis?”

Yeah, Mr. Margarine Tub didn’t have much to say when he got dropped on the parkay floor.

Back in my youth, me & my friends would always hang out at the video parquet.

I’m sure glad I wasn’t one of Elizabeth Parlor’s eight husbands. Seven husbands? Wait…

Actually, I meant video arcade. How sad they’ve all been forgotten. :frowning:

Carrying on: The highly endangered Siberian Taylor is the largest member of the feline species.

[I came up with arcade, so you’re not alone :slight_smile: ]
“Click my Bic” was a common pick-up line used by men with a tiger in their pants pocket.

I’m a lover, not a lighter.

Okay, then. Come on baby, light my fighter.

Wasn’t it actually “Flick my Bic”, which also was one of their suggestive slogans.

BIP:

Various evergreens used as Christmas trees, say for instance the fire tree, have been known to ignite when placed too closely to sources of heat.

::Geez, I can’t believe I goofed up on that. I’ve only heard it a million times! :o
But my word was lighter, not fire. A fire in your pocket…that would hurt. :eek:

My grumpy Uncle Salvatore once said, “I’m against all kinds of stupid holiday rituals. Everything in life should be strictly functional and utilitarian. What’s a Christmas tree fir, anyway?”

Yes, but I wasn’t responding to your post when I went back in play, I was responding to the one before me where someone made a reference to a Doors tune.

BIP:

When playing golf and you chip a shot over a tree, evergreen or otherwise, it’s polite to yell For! so that you don’t accidentally hit anyone you might not see was standing on the other side.

ETA: Wow, an edit to a glitch in the nested quoting somehow ended up in a double post with edits one minute apart. The mind boggles at that one.
