backyard becomes bangyard
nickname becomes ningname
chipmunk becomes chimmunk
better becomes budder
election becomes erection
lazy becomes ragey
career becomes korea
word becomes world
square becomes scare
zoo becomes sue
beach becomes bitch
city becomes shitty
vaccume becomes…
They sure do murder Gwyneth Paltrow’s name, in a discussion about movies etc it took me forever to work out what they meant when they said "Guinness Pahtro".
" The one that I seem to hear a lot is when a nasal sound is inserted out of the blue between a word ending in "t" followed by a word beginning with "y", e.g. "what you want" becomes "whan nyou want".

These are funny though. I’m going to have to listen more carefully to their mistakes from now on.
Heh heh heh.
