Lexical-Redirect

When you're in a conversation and can't think of a word for something and struggle to find the right word or words, and your brain keeps coming up with the wrong words, just roll with it!

The Lexical-Redirect is, in the spirit of Cunningham's Law, the art of intentionally uttering the wrong word, knowing that simply by doing so, your brain will correct itself and think of the right word.
To another family member - "Hey, we're almost out of.. toothpick-earwigs... because, apparently Q-tips don't exist according to my brain."

Family member - "Nice Lexical-Redirect, I was scared for a moment that we had earwigs on toothpicks somewhere in our house."
