surprisingly, tonight my dad said something wrong. he's pretty well versed in the english language so i couldn't stop laughing when he called someone a "cheapskunk" meaning to say "cheapskate."

arabicism
my mom sometimes messes up english words or phrases which is really hilarious and precious. she laughs at herself, too, so i'm not being mean. she's actually very fluent in english and barely has an accent, but sometimes she stumbles over words and it's cute. (when she says "pet peeves" she has to stop to think and she says it very slowly.)

HAHAH thats hilarious... when I worked with baba, he would commonly mistake a popular phrase when he would say "Lets play it by the ears" instead of "lets play it by ear"
hahaha that is hilarious! I love when they do that stuff! my aunt is starting to get sick of me because i always laugh at her mistakes!
omg i love those mistakes! my mom had at least one a day...they're so funny! i am surprised at your dad though...very funny. do you think he'd notice if i called someone a cheap skunk in front of him?
