Sorry, I am having a hard time explaining this, so bear with me.
I am looking for a term describing incorrect grammar as in the following example:
He drove the car and himself into a rage.
For the life of me, I just can't remember what it's called.

Possible duplicate of "Cups of gold and wine". Though You can call me Charlie, but do not call me late when there are scones about is an example using a verb (and which can be blamed on Ricky Gervais). – Edwin Ashworth May 12 '18 at 11:28

Thanks, man. Yeah, it's the same thing as the other topic, I just couldn't think of the damn word and web searches all gave me unrelated things about compound verbs and such. Thank you! – P4NCH0theD0G May 12 '18 at 11:39
