30 Times People Struggled To Use The Correct Words And It Resulted In These Hilarious Mishaps (New Pics)
A malapropism is the mistaken use of an incorrect word in place of a similar-sounding word, resulting in a nonsensical sometimes humorous utterance. And there's even a subreddit collecting pictures of its appearances in our everyday conversations.
It's called Bone Apple Tea, and it has become even more popular since the last time we wrote about it. With 964k members, it continues collecting some of the funniest malapropisms on the Internet so without further I do, continue scrolling and check them out!

Do You Lemonade?...
One of the moderators of the subreddit told Bored Panda that a lot of things can affect whether a particular post gets a lot of upvotes on r/BoneAppleTea or not, including the time of day it goes live. "It's anyone's guess, really. Two items can be posted six hours apart and the first gets ignored whilst the second one gets 14,000 upvotes. Things the mods think are pure gold can get very few upvotes, while something we think is repetitive and tired gets thousands. Who knows?" they said.

A few comments here and there suggest some of these malapropisms are the results of auto-correct but it's something the moderators pay a lot of attention to. "Yes, some auto-correct posts slip through the moderation process [but] we try to catch them and remove them," they said. "Sometimes we miss them — it's a high-traffic subreddit. We are also trying to stay on the side of caution and allow things through if we're unsure [about something]."
Chupacabras Seem So Nice
In an earlier Bored Panda interview, the subreddit's creator TheNekkedNinja said they never thought it would ever become this big: "I have no modding experience so I'm incredibly thankful for the mods that came on board and turned it into what it has become today."
“As far as the name goes, I always liked the original bone apple tea meme so when I saw that the name was free [on Reddit], r/BoneAppleTea was [immediately] born,” TheNekkedNinja explained.

Why Are You So Ego Testicle
It is not so easy to get over an egotistic testicle. Maybe with a mushroom car banana.
I mean, since egotistical men tend to think their groin is the centre of the universe and talk a load of bollocks, this one kinda works!
Rude! My brain is the centre of the Universe! I still talk bollocks, though. It's a gift. And a curse.

I would like to think that some of these were just talk-to-text fails. But most of them definitely surprised me, even if that was the case with any of them.
For sure. It is easy to hit send before noticing how it changed my speech to something insane.

Say these two out loud (from a trailer of one of the Pirates of the Carribean movies): 'you have a debt to pay' and 'you have a dead toupet'. I thought it was the last. Couldn't understand what it had to do with anything.
That's toupe, with an accent on the e, so it would rhyme with pay.

One time my male cousin smacked his femur into the side of a table and when he told me didn’t tell me it was his femur, he just pointed to it. The next day, at church, I said “does you fetus feel better?” 🤦♀️
I think there are 3 types of these: 1: autocorrect or text-to-speech errors 2: heard it, never seen it errors. The flip side of the classic mispronunciation because you've only read a word and never heard it. 3: Thee jest plain ignerent - and these are legion.
I can't believe the number of times I've seen "corn teen" posted. (Quarantine). These are just embarrassing.
Like the girl who told the doctor that she hasn't demonstrated in 2 months and she thought she was stagnant? Or the lady that goes to the doc saying she thinks she has "Spinal Moanin' Jesus."
My brother-in-law who's thirteen years old said triple tree for the trick or treat. 😂
I watched a video of a guy cooking brisket and he said (completely tongue in cheek) you have to use "what's-your-sister's-social sauce". We called it that for ages afterwards - I genuinely struggle to pronounce it properly now because I'm out of practice!
I four got what wind turbines were called today and called them wind spinnies
Some people you cannot save from themselves, even when English is their first language.
At a very nice advertising agency: many times I tried to correct faulty English and bad structure but just as many times, the client would INSIST that the type is exactly as written. Some people you cannot save from themselves.
This basically illustrates the fact that people don't really read nor do they converse in any meaningful fashion any longer. Truly sad.
People all too often write "rod iron" in the classified online, rather than "wrought iron." I look up both when I'm shopping.
Honestly most of these like, if you wrote it, it made no sense!
