Malapropisms: (Malapropisms are twists of the language that, somehow, make sense even though they are seemingly senseless. Does that make sense?)
-Include me out.
-Nowadays, every Tom, Dick, and Harry is named Mike.
-In two words, im possible.
-If people don't want to come to your party, nobody can stop them.
-This feels like deja vu all over again.
-That restaurant is so crowded, nobody goes there anymore.
-Either way, you win or lose.
-It ain't that I'm pessimistic; it's just that we ain't got a chance.
-For your information, I would like to ask a question.
-The future just ain't what it used to be.
-I feel a draft. Raise that window down.
-All right, I want you to listen very slowly. . . .
-A verbal contract isn't worth the paper it's written on.
Most of what is written here are not malapropisms...while skimming through your list; what it is is a great list of paradoxes!
