Just a Play on Words

Have you ever heard of the term "Spoonerism"? It's when you take two words and reverse the beginning consonants. Here are a few examples:

Digital Photo = Phigital Doto
Wesley Snipes = Snesley Wipes
Peggy Lee = Leggy Pee
Bonny Jones = Jonny Bones

At my workplace people spoonerise everything! For a while I started spoonerising lots of stuff and it was pretty fun...for a while. Eventually I got tired of it and started wishing that my mind would stop spoonerising everything. My boss should go to spoonaholics anonymous, because he does it ALL of the time. It's quite milly to see. What a taste of whime!
