Idea Provincian Slip

Whenever someone makes a Freudian slip, instead of invoking Freud’s name, it would be a little less cliche if you attach “ian” to the name of the person who slipped. Like, “Whoa, was that a Rhysian slip?” Or “Ha! Ianian slip!”

Another nice thing about this is that it removes the “subconscious motives seeping though unintentionally” aspect of “Freudian slip,” simplifying it to be: “you use words incorrectly.”
