My Brain has a Mind of its Own
A celibration of creative orthinologies
About the Book
This book is the culmulation of a hobby that has delighted the auther for many years, namely the obsurvation and compilcation of such creative orthinologies as mexed and mangled mitaphors, aggregiated clichés, spoonerisms, malapopisms, eggcorns, mondegreens, typpos, mispellings and other errors of orthogrophy, overexaggerations, repitititive redonedancies, miss quotations, and varied and sundried other forms of verbal garblement. I have gotten great joy from the contempulation of them, and it is my hope (and my expectoration) that they will ring a chord with you the reader as well, and that you will be, perhaps, fully entranted, or if not, at least amused and in some degree instracted, by them.
The creativity that perveates these confutious products of the unconscious mind is truely bindmoggling. They come in a mulplicity of shapes, sizes, and kinds, running the gamlet from
* Insiduous subtleties that you probably won’t even reckonize unless you put them in your thinking cap and smoke on them for a while, through
* Twiddly little blips and infantismal missteps that only a strickler would notise, things that are just a tadge off normal, to
* Blatently ovbious bloops and indiosynchratic oddities, some definitely snort-worthy, all the way to
* Completely absurved weirdities that jump out from somewhere in the fourth demention and hit you between the headlights and the sledgehammer.
There’s something for a little bit of everyone here.
