slips of the tongue

[Geodude]

I seem to be having that effect on people lately. The other day a coworker was trying to say "a bigger discrepancy" but instead said "a bigger discrimination", causing us both to laugh. :lol: And this was a conversation between me and another coworker today:

me: I don't like hearing profanity.
him: Hey, it's not illegal to be profound.
me(grinning): Uh, there's a difference between profound and profane...
him: Oh...profane, yeah, that's what I meant...

And we both laughed.

Ever have any similar slips of the tongue? Let's hear 'em.

I've seen it many times on America's Funniest Home Videos where someone at somebody else's wedding is attempting to wish them success, but they say sex instead.

 

[TheOne]

Oh yea. It happens a lot with me. xD

'Viagra falls.'
... Me.

"I lost my virginity" when I was explaining to my friend about camping out in front of my computer to see the new Pokemon. I meant to say Dignity.

In 6th grade I said "Mom stop the video!" to my English teacher.

I remember on time in my art class we were painting a mural of the 80s and a girl in my class tell me "I'll work on vagina, oops I mean Madonna!"

I used to watch that show like crazy a few years back
Well it happens mostly in the Japanese language. If I want to say Tetsuya, I'll say Setsuya. And one time my sister said "orgasnm" instead of "organism". And that was when she was in a religious private school! O_O

I've done so many acted out fanfics with my sister- Pokemon as Get Fuzzy characters, untold tales of the Orange Islands,etc. that I often say 'pokemon'
instead of 'people'.

XD *that's* funny.

One time I accidentally made a comment that a caterpillar "evolves" into a butterfly.

The worst one that I remember was that I was training my dog, Ella, and called her Gary instead. That's what I get for being obsessed over the man. *rolls eyes*

I kept on messing up the names of two of my characters. One is named Angel and the other is named Andrew... That got confusing when I was reading out loud.

It happens when I try to sing or mouth, or even just think of, the words to a song called "Les cloches" ("The Bells"). There's a part that says, "Mais quand je sonne la grosse Marie pour les amants qui se marient" ("But when I ring the big Mary for the sweetharts who marry"). For whatever odd reason, I keep replacing amants (sweetharts) with enfants (children). It's annoying.

Today, in Chem Lab Section, our Professor was talking about lab safety.

He was talking about for gum and how he wanted us to enjoy gum, just not in the lab.....problem is he didn't say gum, he said come.

And the whole class burst out laughing and he tried to ignore it until the laughing got too loud. Then he he just hid his face behind his paper.

There's a character in FMA named Ling Yao whose name I always say and type as Yaoi. >_>

Last year, after the whole LoT fiasco, I was pretty upset about the whole Bashou sex-change thing for about two weeks afterwards, and one day I walked into art class and said "Hey Bashou" instead of "Bauman" (the guy I was talking to.)
