A Malaphor is the blending of idioms or clichés into something silly and possibly absurd.
- Airbrushed under the carpet
- We'll burn that bridge when we get to it
- It's not rocket surgery
- Until the cows freeze over
- There's more than one way to swing a cat in here
- The road to hell wasn't paved in a day
- A bird in the hand gets the worm
- A golden opportunity on a silver platter
- Does the Pope shit in the woods
- I wouldn't trust her with a ten foot pole
- Give them an inch, they'll take the cake
- Let them eat the rich
- Snug as a bug swept under the rug
- You can't teach sleeping dogs new tricks
- Beauty is in the eye of the tiger
