1. Ha! Blame it on the clever wife.🙂

   1. no, no! it’s was written in sheer appreciation! 😉

2. thats what I would call a spoonerism

   1. That’s exactly what it is, except that spoonerisms don’t necessarily have to make sense, whereas schuttelreims do.

      1. Ah. I didn’t realise the distinction

         1. I think that’s the distinction… maybe I just made it up 🙂

3. Sparky was at the family gathering and son#1 noticed that his shirt and shorts didn’t match. I just told him that I hadn’t selected that outfit… Mismatched socks were the least of his troubles!!

   1. 🤣 Muri 🤣

4. Your schuttelreims remind me of a Russian poet/satirist who made Aliah years ago, Igor Garik (Guberman). Although he writes quatrains (he calls them ‘gariki’), but the sense of humor is similar. When he is not using typically Russian expressions inappropriate in family environment, that is.

      1. My pleasure, David. If you are unable to read it, I am sure your wife will help. I read Russian books to my husband, and often he prefers it to translations.
         Enjoy,

7. My older daughter as a young child would deliberately wear mismatched socks. It’s a look. (K)

   1. I can’t claim that as an excuse 😀

      1. You might start a trend.

8. in the morn, a ruttelscheim is better than Haferschleim. 😀

   1. gruel?

      1. Haferschleim = watery porridge

         1. 🥣
