Here are a few malapropisms that have been gathered from around the Internet:

* Flying saucers are just an optical conclusion.
* A rolling stone gathers no moths.
* Let's get down to brass roots.
* Their father was some kind of civil serpent.
* You can lead a horse to manure but you can't make him drink.
* The flood damage was so bad they had to evaporate the city.
