Turning into your parentsUnable to hold back the genetic tide, I find myself gardening in my carpet slippers, asking for a knife and fork in McDonalds and agreeing with the Daily Telegraph. I'm beyond help - what about you?
Thanks to b3th for the suggestion

Not a speech impediment,it's a literary device that has its own name: malapropism. No longer capitalized, it got its name from a fictional character, Mrs. Malaprop, who humorously switched the sounds of words around.
I suppose that it might be considered an impediment if you do it out of habit and cannot stop.
