bluthboys:

someone on facebook spelled ostrich “ostrage” and i am imagining a really angry ostrich

in an ostRAGE

I GIS’d “angry ostrich” to have an image accompaniment but the results were way too scary for the Eggcorn blog.  Even if the razor-sharp teeth are a ‘shop, too scary.

Based on Google Regular it seems like a fairly common eggcorn/substitution for “ostrich.” http://www.google.com/search?q=ostrage
