so simple you couldn't add the l in simple
I love stuff like this ....things like talking to a person on the phone with the same name as yourself, trying to add the word 'moist' into any conversation etc

They've just told me they have no power at all in Houston
Texas is the only US state not on their national grid - FAIL.

The game I play is to have a LEGITIMATE conversation with my wife and ONLY use the terms: Yes Dear, No Dear and Sorry Dear.

Easy one, used it myself this morning.
"Its going to need replacing 'gusset' doesn't work correctly"
You could add to that "Because 'moist' of the parts are old"
I also used 'quim' today.
"Turn right just past the 'Quims' Head pub"

I find Yes Dear, No dear is always followed by "are you listening to me ?
"
to which I always reply
Yes Dear

Yes Dear
but you COULD say: "Sorry Dear?" followed immediately by "Yes Dear!"
and then do the little victory dance!
You see it CAN work!

I take a bit too much coffee in my coffee
And it's true, too much coffee/sugar/boredom can lead to strange posting habits
