It’s working like a glove
Posted: October 15, 2013 Filed under: glove, works | Tags: blended idioms, expressions, fits like a glove, humor, language, malaphors, mixed idioms, words, works like a charm Leave a commentThis is a mix of the phrases “fits like a glove” (fits very well) and “works like a charm” (works just the way you intended). Both phrases indicate things that are exactly right, so hence the confusion. Also charm and glove are five letter words. A big shout out to Tim Kunzler who uttered this beauty, and Marsha Roberts for ratting him out! 🙂
