Talk Like an Egyptian

Tuesday, September 22, 2009 - 12:00 AM

Between all the different "Talk Like a(n) [x] Days," where [x] can equal anything from a Hobo to a Robot to a 17th Century Mystical Healer to a Lower-Middle Class Tennessean, I can't keep up. The fact that these days usually occur without warning means that the vast majority of us are essentially toiling aimlessly in a cacophony of chaotic mimicry where it impossible to tell whether someone is just playing along with an internet "meme" or if they are speaking in that peculiar manner because they are a bona-fide time-traveler.

Now I'm a busy and easily distracted man, and I barely have the attention span to notice what time it is, much less what day it is. That is why I propose World Talk Like a Sensible, Educated Adult Day, which occurs exactly 111 times a year, at random days. That gives you over half the year to talk like a complete asshole, and the rest of the time to talk like a Sensible, Educated Adult in order to avoid being ridiculed by your friends for not bloviating in accordance with the strict guidelines of internet kitsch.

Come to overcompensating.com each weekday and you will be told how to talk good.
