I think the brain twists drop and kick together and comes up with this excellent malaphor. I have heard this one several times so the synapse must be weak….
Malaphor King, What are your thoughts on this? “If the shoe fits, don’t wear it out!” From -“If the shoe fits, wear it” and “That’s my name , don’t wear it out” The speaker is referring specifically to taking multiple laps around the office, as on would on a cruise ship.
Yes, oh damsel in distress. The King proclaims this to be a fine malaphor indeed. And I like the idea of a cruise ship theme for an office. Ingenious!
