Favorite Malapropism

I once heard a senior barman explain to the new guy that they changed the beer barrels in a particular way because it was that pub's "maison d'etre". When asked what this meant, there were a few seconds of awkward silence before he came up with, "Maison means house, so it's like our house style". Clever in its way.
