Need Some Stress Relief....

I can always tell when my days are stressful because the most random thoughts starting popping into my head. Things like “if the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn’t the plural of booth beeth?”. So, I thought I would write a post that was a little on the humorous side – maybe helping to get everyone’s mind off the stresses of everything that is going on in the world at the moment! Enjoy!

· Have you ever noticed that there is no “apple” or “pine” in “pineapple”?
· “Obganiate” is to irritate someone by constantly repeating oneself.
· “Galeanthropy” is the belief that one is a cat.
· “Bibliophobia” is the fear of books.
· Quicksand only works slowly.
· “kakorrhaphiophobia” is a fear of failure.
· The first person you see after leaving your house is called a “qualtagh”.
· “Steatopygic” means “having a fat behind”.
· Someone who eats frogs is called a “batrachophagous”.
· “Asdfasdfasdf” is a common keyboard mashing similar to “jkjkjkjkj".
· “blennophobia” is the fear of slime.
· “rectalgia” is a pain in the butt.
· “rinkomania” is an obsession with skating.

Some of my favorite “oxymorons”:

· Old news
· Blank expression
