Oops, my b.

"When I was younger, I truly believed that my mom told me I did everything 'half-fast.

' I had no idea until I told my teacher that I would turn in my assignment in a minute because I was doing it 'half-fast.' I thought I was telling her I was taking my time. She about died laughing. Half-ASSED. The phrase is HALF-ASSED."

How these phrases are being said wrong is beyond me.

The only thing I've probably got wrong was 'All intents and purposes ' but that's onlycos when you say it fast, it sounds like 'all intensive purposes'

I’ve seen people write “mise well” or “mize well” when they meant “might as well”. Cracks me up every time.

Is this an American thing to get all our phrases wrong? I feel like Buzzfeed was just making these up as they go along because I've never mis pronounced any of these wrong and never even caught anyone doing the same 🤷‍♀️

Priceless

'Doggy dog world' is my fave

you guys made this stuff up. maybe the prima dona one. but i'm sure it would only be a question of which.

WTF?!?!?! I am shocked 'up and Adam' and 'for all intensive purposes' are incorrect. I've never said 'up and Adam', but have said 'for all intensive purposes'. My mind is blown!

The only one I had wrong was “prima donna” and I specifically remember the subtitles for Groundhog Day reading “Pre-Madonna,” which is why I was incorrect

You left out the most annoying one!! 😩When people say 'could care less', when they mean 'could not care less'

23 People Who Really Don't Understand How The Female Body Works'I knew a guy who thought women could 'just hold in their period blood,' like holding pee in your bladder or something.' Ponder: Sex education has become everything BUT basic sex education; Which is how it was introduced to the school systems to begin with. The basics are no longer taught. It's turned into everything from teaching sex toys, masturbation, genderless, LGB etc Basic info is skipped. Some men are idiots they love the female body but don’t know anything about it gubosta
