Word Play- alternative words

In my recent Photo An Hour post, I shared my alternative meaning for Wedding as part of the 64 Million Artists January Challenge.

Wee-duh-ding

In retrospect, this was obscure and a bit rubbish so I decided to think of alternative meanings for some well-known words.  This lot aren't much better but the point is to try and be creative with your mind so I am doing it!

I'd love it if you shared some that you thought of!

If I had more time, I would have made illustrations to go with these but I am lacking the time!

Ahem...


Commit- A Mitten that has technology to make a phone call  or send a text through!

Diatribe- When you get a particular ethnic clan together and throw paint at them.

Confuse- when you trick a fuse into buying a job lot of amps at top whack!

Confer- Sell an acrylic coat as real mink.

Confab- lie about how good your friend looks in their new dress.

Pirate- The standard cost for a Steak and Kidney Pudding.

Catastrophe - Where you display the feline proudly on your mantelpiece!

Guidance- moves your man makes on the disco floor.

Minimal - a petite shopping centre.

Direct -  where your hair is ruined by the apprentice colourist at the salon!

And I think I had better leave it there before I lose any more followers....


Do share if you decide to do this!
