This is Toobaa after the Ego has been slapped out of her.
Toobaa growled and growled. Naughty A Levels. BAD A levels. The ‘A’, it would seem, was little more than an assimilation vowel between the clear and sharp rap of two other undermining consonants; one terribly average and the other shamefully confusing. The string of stars had been chewn to pieces and she had only just noticed.
She had first met Ego at 6AM. Super-ego and Id were both eloquently trying to impress her with their rhetoric.
Id: You owe no duty of care. You should not respond. Go back to sleep.
Super-ego: You certainly do owe a duty of care! Wake up!
Ego tried to mediate but Toobaa knew better. She knew that, theoretically, women weren’t thought to have much of a Super-ego at all. I know what you’re playing at. Snooze.
And yet, she had been ruthlessly purified. Arrogance and pride, even as regards one’s spelling, is punishable and punishable by awe-inspiring ruin.
Why don’t we take a few steps back, Toobaa… What do you say?
Look- Cover- Write- Check! There’s a good girl!
[Ego-slap: Noun. A term referring to any event, expected or unexpected, which is reasonably drastic in humbling a person or group of persons. (Source: Toobaa’s Gymnalinguistics Dictionary, p.49835)]
Toobaa 
I’ll be honest. That made my head hurt. And I’m already taking the day off ill!
After a long blojjer absence, it seems I haven’t lost my touch!
No, rather returned with a vengeance. :O
Lol, the freedom to jump to one’s own conclusions.
Oz: Get well soon.
Toobaa:I think you’ll need to define the term at some point. It could actually catch on, lol.
I thought it was self-explanatory!! 😮
Thanks, *. I took a couple of days off, and am new again 😀 …
But now I’m scared to return to this post.
Defined. Somewhat.
Lol…SO many words can be derived from that… like Ego-Slappery 😀
Smashing, lool. Every word needs definition lest it become prey to those non-purists that corrupt their meaning- take “wicked” and “awful” for example, lol. 😐
Ego-slap
Ego-slapped
Ego-slapping
Ego-slappery (indeed!lol)W
Ego-slappology
Ego-slappism
Ego-slapper (we could have a problem here)
Ego-slappess
Ego-slappology has got to be my favourite!!
Now, instead of Kodak moments…
Ego-slappology does have that air of authenticity, history about it… It could be an exhibit at an art gallery, detailing pre-Victorian ego-slappism. 😀
Part of me also thinks that we need jobs. :$
Ego-slaptacular…I can’t help it!! 😛
Part of me is worried that we all do have jobs.
Ego-slap!
Lol, I empathise completely.
*ouch* 😦
Also…. have you noticed, that RIGHT at the bottom of this page, underneath the blue footer, there’s a tiny smiley?
It made my Monday morning. 🙂
Hehe I know! It’s supposed to be on every page.
Why is Oz ouch-ing?
I’d not noticed it before, but now it makes me smile every time I look at it, lol. 😀
He ouched because I announced the administration of an ego-slap with a ‘!’
…and it stung, as only an ego-slap with an exclamation mark knows how. :$
*Taaaaaaasshhhh*
Yes, I do indeed hear it now, hehe 😀
No way am I letting this blog go a week without a comment.
#Rain drops on roses and whiskers on kittens, bright copper kettles and warm woollen mittens,
brown paper packages tied up with strings, these a few of my favouriteee thingssssssss# 😀
That catchy tune was the last thing I read before I went to sleep, and the first thing I thought of when I woke up :S
“Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite thingsssss….”
Lol, oh dear. Not good. In Toobaa’s absence we’ve driven ourselves to distraction. 😐
10 days and no sighting of Toobaa! Another 5, and I’ll take over. And yes, it will be hostile.
😛
Day 3 of 5.
Toobaa: Hope you’re happily sane, or happily insane whatever it is that’s keeping you busy 😀
Thats it.
It’s now mine.
Lol, so what are we to expect of this hostile take-over?
Swing towards right-wing politics, celebrity gossip and daytime chat-shows.
*shudders* I scare even myself sometimes!
**It’s The Most Wonderful Time Of The Yeeeeear
(ding! dong! ding! dong!)
With the kids jingle belling-
And everyone telling you “Be of good cheeeeer”
It’s The Most Wonderful Time
Yes The Most Wonderful Time
It’s The Most Wonderful Time Of The Yeeeeear!**
Hehe, she’s back. Thank goodness. It is indeed, the most wonderful time of the year.
Ok, but know that the celebrity gossip is waiting for its chance.
lol… hilarious… bring back memories of my A’ level days 😛 such a long time ago it seems.
Thank you Ammena! 😀 It DOES seem a long time ago which is why it feels so unfair that they should come back to haunt us! 😉
