not quite eggcorns

[Victor]

It's actually child-speak. More specifically, these were utterances by
4yr4mo old kid. In the first clip, the kid speaks first, in the
second--second.

1.    I don't want to wear this hat because it's too big for me. -- Do
you want to wear my hat? -- No, it's *too-bigger*!

2.    [Leafing through the animal picture book] -- Sharks eat fish, like
mackerel. -- Yeah! it's the *macaroni fish*. -- Macaroni fish? -- Yes,
if you slice it and fry it, you get macaroni and cheese.

Hope everyone is well entertained for the holidays!
