it's the little things

i just witnessed someone type:

" she looks like a fishing lewer "

a tiny alarm sounds in my mind because what he means is " a fishing lure "

which is not a spelling mistake but a hilariously obvious misunderstanding of of the colloquial phrase "fishing lure".

i wonder if he just misheard it one time and from then on, heard that word sounding like that but only in the context of being after "fishing"...? because i'd say he probably would recognize how to spell and pronounce "lure" if it were used in a separate context like, "she was drawn towards the lure of the lights..."

i love when people do this though-- the whole mispronunciation thing is so common in conversation and maybe i shouldn't be amused... but i am, every damn time.

fun ones to hear:

exclamation point as explanation point

jewelry as jewlery

library as libary

Happiness is a state of mind that takes years to achieve, an equilibrium that comes about after hard work and commitment to following your own directions, and acting on your own personal desires, not those thrust upon you by multi corporate entities. there aare only a few routes to authentic happiness left that havent been turned into theme parks for the brain dead, or criminalised out of existance. thankfully, skateboarding is one those alternative routes to fulfilment.
