Someone's had enough ... And they didn't even recycle.
Lickable lyrics
It seems that whenever a song line is written, a mondegreen — a misheard or misinterpreted phrase — is just around the corner. Could someone really have thought that John Travolta, while professing his love for Olivia Newton-John in the song You're The One That I Want, sang
"I've got heels, they're made of plywood, and I'm losing my soul"? Or that in Dancing Queen by Abba, we were really being encouraged to, "see the meat on the tangerine, oh yeah"? And Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen ... the line actually goes, "Spare him his life from this monstrosity", but many budding rock stars have been singing: "Spare him his life from this one-sausage tea", "Spare him his life for his small sausages", or "Spare him his life for his pork sausages". In fact, foodstuff does seem to lend itself well to the whole misinterpretation theme. Perhaps Beyonce really does sing, "All the single lettuce" or those 80s pop stars Bananarama really did feel "Guilty as a cocoa bean". On a similar note (if you'll pardon the pun), I really did think that Elton John, in his song Sacrifice was singing about a "Cocoa heart".

Technology — it's child's play
Linking your technology with your dependants can be problematic, especially when they are better at using it than you, writes a reader. "My 8-year-old son has changed my email name and my Google account name to Minecraft Gaming and changed my picture avatar to Minecraft Steve, so now every email I send — to my accountant or clients, they are perplexed and send it to trash. I have tried to change it back, but he changed it again and now I have to wait 90 blinking days before I can be me again."
