Drive-By Hypercorrection
During the return from an outing with a friend, Alice, we pulled up to a red light, and to our left was another vehilce with two fuzzy dice attached hanging from the rear-view mirror. Alice proceeded to let out the following remark(s):
What a lovely fuzzy die he has hanging from his mirror!Or something to that effect. It's a spectacular example of hypercorrection, and then a correction of a hypercorrection, all in one turn of speech.
...and the other die is lovely too.
