A malapropism walks into a bar, looking for all intensive purposes like a wolf in cheap clothing, muttering epitaphs and casting dispersions on his magnificent other, who takes him for granite.

I love seeing new words, all kidding aside, "malapropism", gonna look that one up after this. But guessing this leads to the confusion between granted and granite?
EDIT, holy shit, I have seen the word "Malaprop" before. I cant remember the exact title of my poem, but "Malaprop" was in the title. I had forgotten about it.
It is the confusion of similar words.

There are six malapropisms in the joke. Find them all and win a prize.

If it involves meeting Agnetha or Benny or Bjorn or Anni, I am all in.

Just heard this one:
What's the difference between acne and a catholic priest?
Acne tends to come all over a boy's face AFTER he starts puberty.
"If we go down, we go down together!"

Crap, all I got was the granted, vs Granite.
"Sheep's clothing" is the only other one I am spotting.
"Aspersions"?
Surly you are kidding, ony 3?
No, you are not kidding, and you don't want me to call you "Surely"?
Ok wait, "intended purposes"?
4 now?
Somehow I am thinking "muttering epitaphs" also has something to do with this.

Well, I guess this means I will never meet the members of ABBA.

I hate flying, but I am damned near tempted to go to Sweden just to see the ABBA Museum and post a picture of me there just to piss you off. Fortunately for you I am a fucking wimp.
