I enjoyed Robert Archibald Ford's article on spoonerisms, Learn to Spike Lunars [ XVIII , 4].
Although Freud, so far as I know, did not discuss Spoonerisms on his classic analysis of slips-of-the-tongue, his theories as to the psychoanalytic implications of transposed sounds, such as those attributed to Rev. Spooner, could have been usefully added to Learn To Spike Lunars [ XVIII , 4] by Robert Archibald Ford.
Useful spoonerisms substitute a common or meaningful phrase for another when transposition occurs, as when “the movement was dealt a crushing blow” becomes “the movement was dealt a blushing crow .” Changing “there's a cozy nook in my kitchen” to “there's a nosey cook in my kitchen” not only introduces a totally new meaning, but also injects humor.
I am not suggesting that all the fun should be taken out of Spoonerisms; but, when transposed sounds reveal profound universal anxieties, then perhaps we should go beyond merely enjoying a good laugh.
Useless spoonerisms must be avoided and characterize their creators as rank novices or amateurs.
