Attempting to make a splash...
Splash. It's one of those words, isn't it? I mean, virtually any word in the English language (and I presume other languages as well, though I do not speak them) can start to sound strange or funny or weird after a while, especially if you say it over and over again. The meaning the word is meant to convey starts stripping away from the surface, the sounds of the letters arranged just so start to lose their unity and the word just starts to become...nothing. A sound. A mixture of syllables of meaningless gibberish. Splash-splash-splash-splash-splash-splash-splash. See what I mean? No? Maybe it's just me. But I believe it's true. And certain words are more susceptible to this than others. Like 'Mother' it seems harder to do, where 'chicklet' seems to dive straight into this very pit almost immediately. So just what the hell is a 'splash' anyway? That's wha...
