My mom is a good one for screwing up lyrics. She listened to a lot of R&B when she was in college. Aretha Franklin was one of her favorites. However, she thought "chain chain chain, chain of fools" was "Jane Jane Jane. Janey Poo" until I corrected her when I was in high school.
Another good example was when she told me how much she liked this song by AC\DC because the lyrics make her laugh. I assumed it was Big Balls, but I asked anyway. She said the song went "dur dur dee dunder dee". I almost died laughing. She couldn't believe Bon Scott was singing Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap.

"I am your father."
...... MOOOM?! Why is uncle Stan saying this?!
"Luke, I am your father."
Oh uncle Stan, you and your Star Wars.
Fortunately Inigo Montoya gives you the whole context and who says it.
Or "Elementary, my dear Watson."
Also, "Thirty Thieves and the Thunder Chief." There was a little book at the checkout counter containing a lot of Mondegreens a long time ago that I flipped through, it had such gems as:
"'Scuze me while I kiss this guy" (which I think was the title of the book)
"She's got electric boobs/her mom has, too"
Each one was illustrated with a line drawing showing the misheard lyric in action.
Oh hey, Amazon still has it listed:

I don't know; maaaaybe. You'd better be keeping track of which files are which this time--I don't want another anime fanfic smut.
So you're saying you DIDN'T enjoy reading my Death Note orgy starring all the death gods?

D'oh!Especially her cuts.
You can send the fanfic smut to me. I'll give it a test run, if you know what I mean.
... I'm saying I'll masturbate to it.

Man I don't know. I didn't grab me. I tried but it felt like I was just going through the motions. And I was going through the pages hand over fist but the ending just wouldn't come. I mean where do they get off?
Is there Life after death? Only one way to find out.I went looking for something in the kitchen and found an unopened box of Life cereal with a 2011 expiration date.
Thank goodness it wasn't an unopened carton of milk with a 2011 expiration date.

Made Bolognese. Super delicious. But it seems celery and carots give me gas. Never happened before.
I had never heard Lana Del Ray outside of the Summertime Sadness remix on the radio. I tuned her into Spotify, and I've been listening for five work days in a row. I think I may have a problem.[DOUBLEPOST=1405101705,1405101660][/DOUBLEPOST]

Ugh, don't remind me. Back during my bachelor days in college, I had a milk jug I'd forgotten to throw out for like a month.. and a milk jug with good milk. One night I reached in and grabbed the wrong jug, took a swig right out of the jug... And vomited a trail all the way to the bathroom.
Once, many moons ago when I did not know any better, I cleaned my boyfriend's apartment because he and his roommate were utterly disgusting. I decided the kitchen needed to be cleaned first. They had milk in half gallon cartons that were months past the expiration date. The first one I tried to pour out looked more like ricotta cheese. If only it smelled as pleasant. I can't tell you how many times I nearly threw up while cleaning that refrigerator.
Yeah, I wasn't the cleanliest person in my younger adult years either, so I've been there. My least proud moment was having to throw out an entire crockpot, crock and all, because it hadn't been cleaned in far too long.

This actually reminds me of one of the creepiest things that happened to me as a child. We got a box of Life from the store brand new. Opened the bag and spiders poured out. My dad doesn't do customer service or matching like that. He just threw it away.I went looking for something in the kitchen and found an unopened box of Life cereal with a 2011 expiration date.
We had that also at one point. We dove in to save the crock pot (among other things), but because the dishes had been sitting for so long (and because we both appeared to be waiting for the other to make the first move), one evening I made a show of coming out into the living room (which adjoined the kitchen) and announced to her, "You know, I think there's something come alive in our kitchen."
...She looks away from the TV and nods agreement to me.
"...and I think it's high time we did something about it."
And then, while continuing to look her in the eye, I drew up the revolver I'd had hanging down by my side, cocked the hammer, aimed it at the sink, and while not letting go of her gaze, pulled the trigger.
*BANG!*
(I hadn't told her I'd loaded a blank round)
"There," I said. "Now it's dead. All we need to do now is get in there and clean it up."
It made a good story, we got our crock pot back, and we never let the kitchen get that bad again.

I suddenly got this weird reference I couldn't place and it was bothering so much. Was it from Buffy maybe? No, someone kept saying it, it was a running joke. I don't quite remember the first part it was something about roaming the earth?
I just couldn't place it so I gave up and googled: "kept saying roam the earth like kwai chang caine from kung fu"
And as I was scanning the results it hit me. It wasn't a pop culture reference.
Fuuuck.
