Our family mondegreen was to mispronounce words like idiosyncracy (iddy-ahsin’-krassy) and horsdoeuvres (horse doovers). Pity my son who didn’t realize this when he went off to college.
It took a couple of minutes to think of this, but I like the word "discombobulate". For one thing it has your name in it, but, seriously, I would use it to describe how some people look when I tell them I like Bernie Sanders.
SO relieved to have news of my Lamar. Of course, I'm sorry he's locked up again but at least he's being showered.
