They're called Roonerspisms

Discovered by one Irishman, Dr Seamus Rooner who noticed that the brain activity in the victim was too slight to be call a spasm so he called it spism.
Hence the term for those afflicted with this was called a Rooner Spism, but the afflicted of course called it a Spooner Rism.
It's true, trust me, I submitted a paper on this at Uni many moons ago.

Hey Daddles,
How about less time on the boards and more time building that TAFE boat!

I once mispronounced the word dyslexia as lysdexia,
I thought it was so funny that I still do it to this day, I actually cannot say the word dyslexia.
Nothing against those with Dyslexia BTW :)

Did you hear about the dyslexic, amnesiac philosopher?

He used to lay awake at night wondering if there really is a dog. :D

The term "going forward" really annoys me, perhaps it is management trying to emphasise that although they may not be moving, they are not going backwards :)
I really can't stand the substitution of "and" with "n" or "of" with "a".

I don't know, I see a bit of synergy here that we could leverage. Let's take that offline and we'll get our people to workshop it for a few weeks.

Excellent! Then we can caucus their output with the other stakeholders and get consensus to implement a timeframe. At the end of the day, we should be able to deliver on a bottom-line outcome, going forward. Excuse me, I'll just answer my mobile.

Of course we'll need to implement a change management system, complete a risk assessment, and agree on a contingency plan. Is it Y2K compliant?

OK. I'll get my PA to put together a KPI worksheet to calculate the EBITDA. If that doesn't work, we'll just rub in a bit of MFKL!
