Hi All,

Not sure if this is the correct place, can't find alt.spoonerisms.

Long ago Kenny Everett created Ms. Cupid Stunt, not very subtle.

Has anyone given much thought to spoonerising something innocent into
something rude ?

Last night over fish and chips a you lady asked for someone to pass
the Cunny Rustard.

I almost fell off my chair laughing when I considered the implications
of this new twist.

Thoughts please.

What's the distance between Fanny Craddock (An old UK battleaxe of a
cook) and a cross-country runner>

One's a pant in the country.

Not aq spoonerism, but still amusing:

Here's a couple:

Nick Price (the golfer) - Ladies love Prick, er, Nick.

Years ago, my father came up with this one:

Paul Blair (former centerfielder for the Baltimore Orioles baseball
team) - now say it to yourself: "Baul Plair, Baul Plair, ball player"

That's an anagram too.

I have that on the Archive : Nick Price = Nice prick!

I don't claim to being particularly proud of it though.

No.Spoonerisms are about word sounds. Anagrams are strictly letter-
bound.

Of course, phrases can be both.

Cheers,

You know, I can't find one that isn't an anagram. Obviously, I'm not
trying hard enough. :-)

Look at the Twiggy\counterfeit dollar one:

One's a phony buck.

The 'ph' sound is replaced by the 'f', so it's not an anagram.

I would imagine that many Spoonerisms are anagrams though.

"Private Eye" dropped through my door today.

In the letters section is the following missive from OLLY BACH who
opines:

Would the correspondent (Letters 1206) signing herself as Mary Hinge
be the same dear Mary who used to perform a delightful, if Risqué act
on Llandudno Pier in the 1960s?

Her partner at that time was Betty Swallocks and their act centred
around an unusual dance involving a ferret and some ping-pong balls.

A true one for you...

A few years ago, I worked in a shop that sold kites, toys, and
juggling equipment.

My colleague & I were explaining the different types of kites to a
female customer.

He started off telling her about different types of stunt kites, then
started a sentence meaning to say with these words:

"My friend Jacky's stunt kite...."

However, he accidentally spoonered "stunt kite".

We still laugh about it.

Heh!

I remember Kenny Everett telling about a neighbour calling in her
cats in the evening, Cater and Pollux. Trouble was he said
'bollocks'.

Here's a classic. Bear in mind that this is the BBC!
