What do Words Mean?
By
Michael Casey
Well
I said I’d write something comic so here it is. Tonight we discover
that Trump asked the FBI to stop investigating Flynn, I’m not going to
write about that but as stated in an earlier piece I do think Trump will
resign, to spend more time with Barron, in fact I recommended he
should.
So
tonight I’m going to explain the Meaning of Words, for the Meaning of
Life you should go ask Monty Python, or maybe my daughter as she is
going her Religion exam tomorrow. No I’ve decided to talk about this
just a few minutes ago, after I slapped on the Movelat pain killer.
I have readers all over the world and I did put a load of Translations on this site https://butcherbakerundertaker.blogspot.co.uk/ but
anybody who uses a computer knows how to get a translation, Google is
good. For others my backup site Translates if you just click on the
Square https://michaelgcaseyfrombirminghamengland.wordpress.com/ I hope that’s simple for any of you who have English as a 2nd Language.
To my theme though, What do Words Mean?
I Love You. Means I Love You.
I Love You? Means a Question, I love you ?
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
I Love You. Was also used by Judas, so it means something else.
So
how things are SAID makes a difference, as does context. That’s why
actors get confused by just 3 simple words, for us the writers its
simple. I love you, I love you, I love you, means three different
things, if only actors could just read what’s on the page.
I Love You can actually mean I HATE you.
And
I hate You, can actually mean I LOVE YOU. You might say this over your
own mother’s grave, you hate her because she has left you all alone in
this world. But obviously you LOVE HER.
I
love you may just mean you want sex with a girl, but you say I love you
because the use of that word gets her in your bed. If you just said can
I sleep with you, then she is affronted, and slaps your face and thinks
you are a bastard, and may go to bed with your best friend instead.
So
the use of language can win or lose the girl. Conversely by saying I
really want to eat your biscuit, which is a metaphor, that can be a very
rude thing to say, but the girl likes the honest and so you eat her
biscuit with a cup of tea on the side, or several.
So
language and even extreme rude language can win the day, because people
get fed up with all the pretentious language, and the girl likes
honesty. We have convention and years of conditioning that controls or
language in the mating game. Can you just come to bed before I get
wrinkles, you are my duvet.
Now
I could use extreme language and coarse language, repeatedly,
repeatedly and repeatedly till I fall over exhausted after an hour. But
that would be the cheap option, or even a metaphor, so I won’t do it
I’ll just leave it to to you imagination. Less is more, more or less,
depending on how many cups of tea and biscuit you are having. I hope I
have made myself clear, if I have not then maybe my language is not up
to the challenge, if that’s another metaphor you’ll have to decide for
yourselves.
See
words are weapons and the pen is mightier than the sword, I know I have
used my pen as a sword in the past, and no that is definitely not a
metaphor. Ask a few CEOs and they will recognise my name. But what of
you in Portugal or France or Poland or Germany or any other far flung
place that reads my words, do you realise that words are also tokens of
love and by using them right you can win the fair maiden and you can
both grow old and fat with your 10 children.
I
have 1,068,000 words on the page, in my books on Amazon as you read
them you’ll see how my themes have grown and changed over years. The one
thing that remains the same is that I want to make you all smile
wherever you are in the world. I don’t want to shock you, I just want to
be a cartoon and cartoons don’t use bad words, they are there to make
their point via laughter.
Anybody
can swear, and I do on occasions, but on the page that I’m sharing with
people all over the world I want to make you laugh. If I’m using a
metaphor or Pantomime humour I hope it doesn’t shock you to the core. I
want readers from 10 to 110 to enjoy my words. And if you divide 10 into
110 you get the 11 ways to eat your biscuits, and yes that is a
metaphor you can explain to your boyfriend. So be careful of all the
crumbs that’s all I’ll say, I just hope that now you really do
understand what words mean.
