Some of us already do this without any help.

We don’t need a plug-in to make things funnier for us.

Spoonerisms are a real speech impediment, and tend to be inherited.

Yes, I am so afflicted. As was my mom.

Being told that I had to put on socks as a kid because her “freet were feezing” was funny for me, for a while. I don’t think it was ever funny to my mom.


I honestly did not know spoonerisms were a speech impediment. In fact, I only learnt of them recently when I discovered Nacker Hews[1] here on HN, and thought it was quite humorous. I am sorry to have hurt you in any way. I should definitely research more next time.

Funny, I just emailed a link to a Smithsonian article about the Russian Revolution and switched Palace Coup to Callous Poo. Silly fun.
