    Order an expresso. You’ll get lots of bites, it’s just too easy.

    Ha, for months I had a girlfriend really confused as I kept saying “hairy muff” instead of fair enough. Every time she asked me about it I was adamant that I had said “fair enough” Broke down in hysterics one day with the look on here face n ending up confessing.

    Datas instead of data. Working with various tech people it never fails to get a bite or send them into a twitching fit

    Interrogative. Again from US Military Radio Telephony: I have a question.

    I have many more I deliberately misuse to amuse myself. 🙄

    “Sausinges!”, as a tacit tribute to my old mate Bluebottle.

    Probably a thousand other deliberate mispronunciations also in the style of various Goon Show characters, to be honest. I don’t get out much.
