“Looks Like A Lip Sink Job”
I don’t even know what to say, so I’ll just pretend to say it and perhaps someone else could vocalize?
I’m unsure of the sink/sync relationship…perhaps the lip does sort of “sink” in that context?

We discussed something like this a few months ago: http://eggcorns.lascribe.net/forum/view … ?pid=15552

Right. I searched for “lip sink” and some other pattern, but missed that discussion (did not match search pattern). Now I’ve read the discussion, I think it could be a misspelling, but who really knows? Thanks!
