Sammich is a Good Word

Words.


Words, words, words, words, words. And maybe (hopefully) some other words besides words.


In other words, other words.


Like sammich. Now that's a good word! Depending on how you look at it (speaking only for myself here, but I tend to look at it from left to right, like most words). Or, depending on how you feel about it, I suppose (I feel quite fond of it, myself), the word sammich has it all. It's fun, it's colloquial, it's food. It can be quite yummy, hence the "mm" smack-dab in the middle of sammich.


I am imagining a face that speaks this fun and yummy word. The lips are persed, the voice is directed out of the side of the mouth that isn't gripping a straw of hay. "I fancy me a sammich!" Adding a nod for emphasis.



Which brings me to my next point, Point Number C. Is a straw of hay a thing? It doesn't sound right. You know what I'm talking about though, right? One piece of long, yellow, dried-out grass. Do people call it a straw of hay? I don't know. Doesn't matter. As long as you can picture what I'm talking about.



And for my next point, Point Letter 6 and Three Quarters...


Words.


Words, words, words.



Last point I'll make, Point: the Sequel,


Words math. Did you know that? They math. Let me give you some examples.




Words + more words = mental images


Wrong words + chance = unpredictable mental images 


Wrong words + purpose = lies


Purposefully wrong words - ill intentions = jokes


Purposefully right words (in the wrong order) = poetry


Unpredictable words + a tangent = Whatever This Is
