CRYPTOMNESIA

[noun]
when a forgotten memory returns without it being recognised as such by the subject, who believes it is something new and original. It is a memory bias whereby a person may falsely recall generating a thought, an idea, a song, or a joke, not deliberately engaging in plagiarism but rather experiencing a memory as if it were a new inspiration.




ATHAZAGORAPHOBIA

[noun]
the fear of forgetting or being forgotten, ignored or replaced.
 
DEFENESTRATE

[verb]
throwing of someone or something out of a window
Made famous by the Defenestration(s) of Prague, when bunches of politicians were tossed out of high windows. Could re-enactments in USA solve some current political problems? Well, the 2nd Defenestration provoked the Thirty Years War, so maybe it's not such a good idea.
 
Touch the penis, stroke the penis, love the penis. I need a penis for my nervous tic.


I think you would have no trouble finding a tock for your tic. :cool:

Yeah, those ol' Czechs and Bohemians sure did have a thing for chucking folks out of windows.

[mission]
The Bones Brigade travels around California, Nevada, and Hawaii to different skate spots in search of a wisened old man, Won Ton "Animal" Chin. The movie is of the old-school nomadic, skate-everything-in-your-path genre with interludes of stopping to rip-up a big ramp, pool or kicker. After much searching and skateboarding, they locate a large ramp in the desert. They also find a Chinese character on the inside of the ramp's spine. They conclude that in searching for Mr. Chin, they may have found his spirit.
