Malaproper / Web Original

• ToasterLeavings's writeups at Everything2. Werd in dude!! (and by dude I also mean a ven diagram protractoring includesive of all hot chicks)...
• Branca Braunstein of Survival of the Fittest is starting to mis-speak a fair bit; mostly because she's deluded herself into believing she is one of her "friends" who is far more upper-class than her, so to speak. This coming directly after Branca killed aforementioned "friend".
  Branca: That's is a mag-mag... magnitude idea! Glad I Thought of It.
• Torq, the Half-Orc Fighter of Critical Hit tends to do this with any multi-syllabic words, especially if they come from someone else's mouth first.
• Jontron tends to do this in his unscripted videos, namely, those made as part of the Game Grumps.
  Jontron: *describing the importance of Kirby obtaining the Hammer ability* We need this, this hits wooden.
  • Also discussed on Game Grumps during one episode, in which Danny describes the potential hilarity that can come from someone trying out an idiom that they don't quite understand, e.g. "screwed the pooch":
  Danny: DAMMIT! I had sex with the dog! I really fellated a canine!
  • Ross is also known for his malapropisms on the show, such as "really throwing a wrench into that triangle" and "we're all cavemen eventually". Danny reportedly keeps a list of these "Rossisms", and fans have taken to cataloging them as well.
• Party Crashers: In "Mario Party 7's WORST Map", Nick misreads heroine as heroin, leading to a Running Gag that Shy Guy has a drug addiction.
• The episode of Pokémon The Abridged Series in which the heroes meet Sabrina, the Psychic Gym Leader, saw malapropisms of such words as "psychopath" and "psychic-ologist", much to the annoyance of Brock.
• Wood Burns of Where the Bears Are has a photogenic memory, knows what evidence tamponing is, and will have you know that Dumbo is a delicious dish made from sausage, rice, and shrimp.
• It has become a fairly widespread Tumblr meme to mangle Benadryl Computerglitch's name to the point of comical inaccuracy, yet still be immediately aware of who is being referenced.
• When referring to the Doctor Who serial "The Edge of Destruction", Who Back When host Ponken will consistently refer to it as "The Edge of Descrussion."
• Neil Cicierega milks this for all it's worth in his "Guide to" series, which are mostly accurate guides to subjects including The Lord of the Rings to Tom Hanks films in terms of order of events, but with glaringly incorrect names.
  HanksMaster: Tom Hanks got his start on the hit sitcom The Booty Brothers with Peegle Scalia, which led to a breakout starring role in Ron Howler's Splanch with Dairy Hamper, followed by comedies such as Barnacle Portal, This Man Has One Wet Foot, and The Pony Pimp, and dramas such as Nomming on Cotton with Jabby Gleeksquad, Everybody Dance Now, and crime films like Pregnet with Dan Ass. Then, one of his most famous roles: Bag, which marked the Tom Hanks evolution from boy to man.
• r/BoneAppleTea is a subreddit dedicated to posting instances of malapropisms.
• Daithi De Nogla, thanks to his frequent mangling of words and sentences, very out-there Irish brogue, and wonky microphone, does this just about anytime he opens his mouth.
• SCP Foundation: One of the sillier objects protected by the foundation is SCP-586, a length of green metal pipe that causes anyone trying to describe it in writing to make typos and malapropisms. This even extends to the "file imagine" of the object being a green Pope instead of a green pipe.
• In Dragon Ball Z Abridged, Goku has this problem, what with being the ultimate Idiot Hero. Ultimately, it gets so bad that Mr. Popo kicks him off Kami's Lookout for all the times he mangled "Hyperbolic Time Chamber".
• In Solid jj's Stoogeposting videos, all three brothers do this, but Curly is the most obvious:
  • Although he pronounces it correctly, the subtitles in "The Three Stooges run for office" reveals that he says "martial law" as "marshal law."
  • In "The Three Stooges go Job Hunting," Curly is asked if he has experience sanitizing and replies "I'm always sanitizing about the pretty girls."
  • In "Doctor Strange Multiverse of Stooges":
    Wong: Wait, you're multiversal, too?
    Curly: No, we're only versed in English, but we're the bestest at it!"
