Words that should never be mixed up

WAIST and WASTE

acceptable: Edward grabbed Bella's waist.

unacceptable/fail: Edward grabbed Bella's waste.

Notes: That's just gross. Horrible fail on the author's part. I feel sorry for even typing it up.

BRIDAL and BRIDLE

acceptable: Fang picked Max up bridal style.

unacceptable: Fang picked Max up bridle style.

Notes: Fang is not a horse.

Just thought I'd let you know.
