AVIS: "We try harder." (oops, repeat)
VOLKSWAGEN: "Think Small."
FedEx: "When it absolutely, positively has to be there overnight."
Microsoft: “Where do you want to go today?”
VISA: “It's everywhere you want to be.”

Some of these are bad.

hahaha... nice. I've done that before. I said, "are we going to Bary and Mill's house for dinner?" When I meant, "are we going to Mary and Bill's house for dinner?"

yeah... I'll shut up now before I make myself look like a complete retard. :p

The best one I've seen recently(ish) was in the Metro (a free newspaper in the UK) that had been dicussing Spoonerisms on the letters page for some time. Then a high-profile newsreader was married to a high-profile investment banker and the Metro took the oppurtunity to have a front page headline of:

"Natasha weds her banker". :D
