Atkinson’s Disease
Posted: March 22, 2024 Filed under: Uncategorized 4 CommentsA docent at a museum was talking about a person with Parkinson’s disease, but uttered this malaphor instead. I think it is a mashup of “Atkins Diet” and “Parkinson’s Disease”. A big thanks to Anthony Kovacs for hearing this one and passing it on.
Malaphors 
Or possibly Addison’s.
Yes indeed. On reflection and doing some research the docent was indeed trying to say Addison’s. I will post a follow up. Thanks!
There’s also an Addison’s disease. Didn’t president Kennedy suffer from that?
