Sometimes a word just strikes you as so funny it seems as though it shouldn't be allowed to be a word at all. I was pondering the merits of just such a word one night, and was trying to convey its weirdness to Caity (who just happened to be home for Christmas).
:
Lying in bed, we're watching TV.
Me: Tongue is a weird word. Say it. Say "tongue".
Caity: What? Why?
Me: Say it. Say "tongue".
Caity: You're weird.
Me: Say it. Say "tongue".
Caity: No!
Me: Say it. Say "tongue". Just say it. It's a weird word. Say "tongue".
Caity: No!
Me: SAY IT! Say "tongue".
Caity: No!
Me: Say it! Say "tongue"! Say it!
Caity: Tongue
Me: See? It's it a weird word?
Caity: You're weird.
I know what you're doing now. You're saying "tongue", and thinking about how weird it is, aren't you?
