I learned a new word today; malaphor. It’s an informal term for a mixture of two aphorisms, idioms, or cliches (such as “We’ll burn that bridge when we come to it”).
Some of the funnier ones include:
“You hit the nail right on the nose.”
“She really stuck her neck out on a limb.”
“I can’t make these split-minute decisions.”
“I can read him like the back of my book.”
“He’s burning the midnight oil from both ends.”
“It’s time to swallow the bullet.”
“It’s not rocket surgery.”
