Very funny. Tough competition for CSI Miami Caruso one-liners. Wouldn't it be great if someone did this to the spew that comes forth from Saint Savage?
@6: that weirdness of hearing a word over and over is called semantic satiation
"The explanation for the phenomenon was that verbal repetition repeatedly aroused a specific neural pattern in the cortex which corresponds to the meaning of the word. Rapid repetition causes both the peripheral sensorimotor activity and the central neural activation to fire repeatedly, which is known to cause reactive inhibition, hence a reduction in the intensity of the activity with each repetition." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_sa…
works for every word word word word word word word
at night when i my head down on my pillow and want to drift off to sleep, this is the kind of detritus that goes through my mind over and over. i will surely be thinking about this tonight. it is fascinating.
