A Lack of Pies

Well, without anything better on the agenda, today I present to you...

The Spoonerism.

Spoonerisms occur when the letters or syllables in a phrase get swapped, either by accident or on purpose, and the results are supposedly hilarious. If you're a big dork, that is. Luckily, I am, so a-spoonerin' we will go!

Examples are:

• Tease my ears (Ease my tears)
  
• It's roaring with pain (It's pouring with rain)
  
• Go and shake a tower (Go and take a shower)
  

Yeah, okay, those were absolutely lame. Anyways, here's a list of ones that aren't completely terrible. I must insist you don't puzzle out the spoonerisms out loud, for it could result in your savage beating by commando nuns. Just sayin', is all.

He's a smart fella.
