Graduate Level Malapropisms
January 15, 2009Family Circus – 01/15/2009

Oh, man! It’s not just the annoying kids anymore. The parents in Family Circus are speaking in ridiculous, non-funny puns too, except it’s not even remotely adorable when they do it. The Keane’s probably figured that being “struck by enlightening” was too advanced of a pun to be believable if it was said by a mere child. This is a high-level malapropism, and must be treated as such!
Tomorrow, we’ll be back to elementary-level malaprops like “Winternet“, “Encyclopediatrician“, and “Ravioli“.













For your own enjoyment – check out this comic strip, I’ve been reading it for about a year now & IMO, it’s great. http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1330
