- Dimwit's Dictionary 1.0 By E-dition
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
"The Dimwit' s Dictionary": Chosen by "PC Magazine Extra" as one of "The Top 10 Internet Downloads" for December 1999: "Anyone can start spirit a bit stupid after writing completely those holiday cards. Let this creature help you be cagy." -- Angela Gunn. Whereas a witticism is a cagy remark or phrase -- indeed, the height of reflection -- a "dimwitticism" is the converse; it is a shopworn remark or phrase. Dimwitticisms are worn-out row and phrases; they are expressions that muffle our grounds and subdued our insight, formulas that we rely on when we are too lazy to state what we suppose or level to find how we find. The more we enjoyment them, the more we conform -- in intellection and spirit -- to everyone else who uses them.The Dimwit' s Dictionary is a compilation of thousands of dimwitticisms (cliches, colloquialisms, idioms, and the wish) that inhabit verbalize and compose excessively. Many of the entries in this book are followed by synonyms that may be used in localize of the worn-out parole or phrase, and by sentence examples taken from a garland of publications; others are followed by commentary; and still others by both. But level the mere inclusion of an entrance -- that is, one unaccompanied by synonyms or commentary -- damns it as a dimwitticism. The Dimwit' s Dictionary will help us in our quest for more purposeful delivery and writing. The goal is to advance understanding and rouse inhabit to accomplish. The goal is to state ourselves as never before -- in writing that demands to be register aloud, in delivery that calls to be captured in print. The Dimwit' s Dictionary will devil some inhabit and amuse others. People who find as though I am referring to them in some of the commentary in this book may be riled by what I compose; those who find as though I am referring to others may be amused by it. This is an irritation, comical book. |
