Just noticed this on some Youtube-poster’s website:
http://www.happyslip.com/about/
She explains that ‘happy slip’ is her mistaken reading of ‘half slip’ as a kid.
Don’t know if this counts as an eggcorn, but if so it might be interesting since it seems to come from Filipino pronunciation of English.
