All intensive purposes

What people say when they misheard "all intents and purposes". It means "all things considered."

For all intensive purposes, most smart people have something worthwhile to say.

For all intensive purposes

How people who don't stop to think about things and are accustom to taking most things at face value say "For all intents and purposes."

My math teacher as a lead-in to some math point said "Well, for all intensive purposes..."

She was a young ditzy female who as her day job taught math and as her night job did modern dance. EXACTLY the type of person you would expect to say "For all intensive purposes."

intensive porpoises

1) malapropism for 'intents and purposes'

2) seriously determined and focused aquatic mammals, dangerous to sharks

For all intensive porpoises, whiskey and vodka will both mess you up in a similar manner if you drink enough

For all intensive purposes

A reintepration of the earlier phrase "for all intents and purposes", the phrase means "virtually" or "for all practical purposes".

For all intensive purposes the phrase "for all intensive purposes" is identical to "for all intents and purposes", and anyone who continues to make the distinction is a soulless pedant.
