Flip of the Tongue, Part 7

A few more recent flips:

As heard on WCCO Radio: The host referred to trinkets of truth -- I would imagine she meant nuggets of truth. But I was bemused by her slip, and the idea that the truth could be found in cheap, insignificant baubles.

Self-conscientious -- when the speaker meant self-conscious. I like the idea of being self-conscientious; it would mean taking care of yourself, right?

Like shooting fish in the dark -- I am responsible for this wonderful mixed metaphor. It tumbled out of my mouth during a meeting when I was grasping for a way to say that a task would be difficult. I'll bet the fish in a barrel wish someone would turn the lights out.
