Subject: Skid Talk
Not sure how many of y'all ever heard of "Skid Talk". It's more than a slip of the tongue, it's a slip of the whole mind. Skid Talk is where the speaker puts one idea on top of another -- kind of a double exposure. A friend of mine, Bunny, is a master.
Be careful though, Skid Talk acts like a time bomb in your mind. It ticks away until your mind explodes, when you realize what you heard doesn't ring quite true.
* "It was so dark, you couldn't see your face in front of you."
* "It was a great movie, don't miss it if you can."
* "From time immoral, men have pondered that question."
* "For your information, let me ask you a question."
* "And there I was, left holding the jackpot."
* "I went to a wonderful party. Everyone in the room was there."
* "Come see us soon, we miss you almost as much as if you were here."
* "I never liked you, and I always will."
* "Too many cooks in the soup."
* "Two can live as cheap as one, but it costs them twice as much."
* "I just want some hot water juice and a lemon."
* "It certainly gets late early this time of year."
* "Isn't it pretty ? The lake comes right up to the shore."
* "Shhh, not so much noise. This isn't the only house we're in."
