I've said instances for entrances before. And portray as foretell in my English class..
And I always think of a word and say another. Like I'm trying to say "They're awesome." and my friend is talking to me about hair.. I'd be like "Hair awesome."
XD.gif I have no idea why. I always sound retarded when I do that.

Yeah. >.> I do it a lot. I get my words mixed up. XD.gif
And I always use improper words.. well, says the pervs. They laugh at like everything I say. Maybe I should put my words in a more mature way rather than "I can't fit it through the hole!!!" But I seriously couldn't fit it in the hole. Talkingaboutstringcough.

Uh, yeah.

"Inproper" is definitely not a word. It's "improper."

It's just always ironic when people make topics about words and then make mistakes themselves.

yea same thing lol, before my boyfriend and I started dating, I always would type (on AIM) "hold on a sec" but sometimes I'd slip up and say "hold on a sex" and I would get red faced and apologize lol. I didn't want him to get a wrong impression

...whaaa? huh.gif
Fruedisn slips are...almost the opposite of perversion in a way, since Freud accepted sexuality psychologically rather than ignoring it as taboo.

Besides which, I don't think I was even talking to you.

Wait, I thought a freudian slip was a subconcious slip of words when you say one word even though you mean another? In other words, If I meant to say sec and said sex, I would subconciously being thinking about sex, right?

Well, yeah. But the thing is that Freud essentially thought that almost everything we do is motivated by sexual desire, so subconciously thinking about it doesn't make you a pervert, it makes you normal.

This topic reminds me of The Giver.. you know when that kid keeps saying "smack" instead of "snack"? Yeah.

I say the wrong things all the time. When I mean to say something, I accidentally say something else, and everyone just looks at me like "What?!". mellow.gif

Of course, but in today's society, saying something like that would make immature high school students giggle.
