Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at an Elingsh uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht frist and lsat ltteer is at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a toatl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae we do not raed ervey lteter by it slef but the wrod as a wlohe.
It's a bit hedrar wehn the wdors are jlembud in a dfernefit way scuh as the mtoto bolew from an RAAF Navigators csroue. I rebmmeer snieeg the pqalue hnanigg on the wlal in the Ctade's Mses at East Sale. It read:

And have you heard the classic 'Duck Hunter' joke where you put 'alph' between the first letter of a word and the rest of the word eg to make 'Duck Hunter' into 'Dalphuck Halphunter'. It's a visual joke (best told when standing on a table before a large gathering) but the concept could be used to rearrange people's names like we did with the Loopy Bubblesniffer etc etc business.
Let's take the favourite Aussie sentence filler 'UM'.
That would make Door Stop's name Dumoor Sumtop.
Or you could use 'UC' to make Silent C into Sucilent Cuc.
Or you could use 'ANKY' to make Journeyman Mick into Jankyourneyman Mankyick or Wayne Davy into Wankyayne Dankyavy or U Beaut into Uanky Bankyeaut.
You just need a bit more imagination if you plan to seriously annoy those BB members with ridiculous nonsense names that don't mean anything.
My sincerest apologies to the kind gentlemen above for any offence caused and thanks for allowing me to bastardise your names for the purposes of demonstration.
Just a phought but remember it's all in the name of PHUN.

AND
if you take some common words like 'bald' 'old' and 'bloke' and apply them to doorstops name you get Old Bald Bloke !!
Amazing !:rolleyes:
That remark is both ageist and hairist.
Another old, bald bloke ;)
funny thing is, those researchers are pretty much correct. I read that first post really easily?? :)
