When he meant to say "how the tables have turned" but said "how the turntables" instead.

We'd love to live in a doggie dog world!

Now he's just repeating himself.

7 of 11

When he completely butchered the phrase, "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me."

It looks like he had baseball on the mind.

8 of 11

Now we're just picturing goats running everywhere.

This still makes us laugh every time.

10 of 11

Two completely different things.
