Spoonerism Ahoy!

A friend’s family uses the phrase “In one swell foop.”

Personal favourite…

Wait untill some some at work is being a pain and then say “As the Rev Spooner would say, what a shining wit”.

They all all to uneducated to get it.

I need to call a phone. Can I use your cab?

I was just about to post it, except in the spoonerfied way, because someone said it about Ukulele Ike earlier in the post. Oh, that uke, what a whining… er…

The day after Sunday is always another Muckin’ Funday to me!

I once read a book called “British Comedy Sketches”, which I would love get my hands on again, but that’s another thread. All the sketches in the book were written by Peter Cook and/or Dudley Moore. One was called “Sketcherism Spoon”. I can remember only one phrase from it:

“The chirds were burping in the trees . . .”

What’s ya gonna do when the cum for you?

Sorry.

I had a drunk friend suggest that we go pick up some Tomestoon pizza.

I love spooking in speanerisms!

O

My dad called diarrhea “The Shizzling Grits.”

There’s an act at Scarbourough Faire called “The Tory Steller” Classic stories and fairy tales done almost completely in spoonerisms. If he comes to your renfest, go see his act.

He does mention that there are certain phrases he doesn’t spoonerize. Like Friar Tuck…
