An Intrusion of Cockroaches, huh? Are you saying something about me here? Or am I being paranoid.
Something I should confess about myself. I do suffer from a little paranoia.
Indeed I can be kinda paranoid about the word paranoid.
Well not the word paranoid. The Word Paranoia!
It took me a while to learn how to spell it, see. Those three vowels on the end throw me. I had to make up a mnemonic to remind me of how to spell it.
The mnemonic was: Oh, I Am so Paranoid…
See I took the O from oh
the I from I and the
A from am
OIA - the last three letters of paranoia.
Now I feel quite secure with it. Generally.
Until those moments of paranoa (sic) creep in and I’m paranoid that I’ve misspelt it.
Hopefully see you tonight.
I’ll be the one without a collective.

PS I reckon the collective for collectives would be: A redundancy of collectives…
A tautology of collectives?
ReplyDeleteA reduction of collectives?
ReplyDeleteA pounce of kittens. Give us more. We need more. A gag of desires. A treason of wants. A plunder of comments.
ReplyDeleteWhat happens next?! Post post post.
ReplyDeletehe's making that fatal error of putting much more in than what he's getting out, thus he appears desperate and will probably frighten her...
ReplyDeleteI agree. I also fear for his upcoming date at Van Gogh's Ear, that he simply won't be able to appear as witty and learned without Google at his fingertips and hours between correspondence to take a childhood regression back to junior school spelling bees.
