We've had two of the grandies today.
It's been a day of rolling mild chaos but great fun.
They were playing in a wooden firetruck when the oldest shouted, "My wrinkles are on fire!"
Apparently, I misheard her, and I still don't know what she said, but I thought it could be a breakthrough in beauty treatment.
There are many instances of people mishearing things, particularly song lyrics, that make them more interesting than the originals.
One that has 70 million searches for the wrong lyric is "Take my horse to the old town road", which is searched for as "Take my horse to a hotel room."
It seems to be something the hoteliers would disapprove of.
Another that seems far safer is the line "I never stray too far from the sidewalk", which sounds like "I never stray too far from the salad bowl."
Queen sang, "Kicking your can all over the place", but some people heard "kicking your cat all over the place".
Not cool for cats, I suppose.
You can search for these yourself and find a bunch that will make you scratch your head in wonder.
You will have your thoughts about how this happens, but I suspect it's a combination of the voice being a bit lost in the music, the singer's accent, and the way the lyrics are pronounced to fit the music.
Mishearing things causes misunderstandings and can lead to far more issues than just humour.
That's why it's vital to improve your writing skills so you can present your posts, emails, etc., clearly to your readers.
This is the best training you can get.

Yes, it is about writing reviews for products, but the skills you'll learn are the same you'll need for any writing you do.
Even when you are looking for free traffic from a forum or a Facebook group, you still need to be able to present your case with clarity.
Anyone who wants to make money online must write.
You can't afford to 'wing it' because you won't remember to put everything in the content, which crashes your hard work.
