I play word games a lot.
I do.
I’m not sure why, although I suspect it comes from being part of a well-worded family.
Examples of such play include:
- Anus and Bonus: Pronounce the “us” like “oose”. Quite fun, and makes for interesting conversation.
- Old Spice: Pronunce “spice” “speech-ay”, like your Italian. I enjoy asking the employees in grocery markets where it is, to see if they know what I’m talking about.
- Wife: Say it wiffy. Can you say Old Hag?
Other favorite words: exsanguinate, discombobulated, cacafuego, constangulating, agape.
The reason I bitch about spelling and grammar a lot is because that’s how I’ve set up my world. I look at the small things, then I see the number of small things and freak out.
That’s why I have problems writing large papers, even though I write one practically every day.
I focus on semantics.
It pisses people off.
I make stereotypes jokingly, and then people think I’m serious about them.
I don’t believe half the stuff I say.
Wow. This article doesn’t flow at all, I’ll post something that makes sense tomorrow.

Poop is spelled the same back and forth, I know this happens with a plentiful number of other words, but the word we are talking about is poop. I find it very funny.
Have you ever come across a conversation when you are talking to someone, and you are explaining an experience that you have recently, or previously been through? When they are just trying to be nice, and say something along the lines of “I know how you feel” or “I fell your pain”?
When I hear that from someone that hasn’t experienced anything close to what I am telling them about, it just aggravates me, I have to say, in my time I have said that to someone when i was completely oblivious to what they were talking about, when I couldn’t even imagine what it was like to go through what they went through, or are going through.
So I conclude with this, If you don’t know what someone is talking about or you have not gone through anything like they have, don’t lie and say that you have, the only time you should be able to say, “I feel your pain” or anything along those lines of a metaphorically phrase is if you have gone though something oh so very similar, or worse than what they are explaining should you be able to say anything like that.
