Antigrams and Malapropisms

What about Antigrams? I think these are a more interesting form of Anagram...
Misfortune - Its more fun
Santa - Satan
Funeral - Real fun
and so on.
Saying this, my favourite anagrams are simple ones
Maggie Thatcher - Gag her chat time
Incomprehensible - Problem in chinese
Malapropisms also seem to be missing. A misused word can be fun at times...
'I was so surprised, you could knock me down with a fender'
and so on...anybody got any more?

I also love "mixed metaphors" such as:
"We'll burn that bridge when we come to it!"
