hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia

hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is the scientific name for a phobia of long words. I feel no fear in the occationally occuring long word and am therefore safe in the knowledge that whatever other fears i might have, an irrational fear of long words is not one them. HOwever i Am Adverse to strings of Long complicated woRds jumbled up in Long dramatic complicated sentences. Thought provoking articles are all very well but compositions of Such length and incomprehensible depth are just too much for My understanding. i wonder If there is a phobia for that? i must GOogle it and see. A phobia of “Long COmplicated jumbled up Sentences”

For research purposes, i came across various blogs with numerous deep, insightful, mind boggling texts. It is possible that i am dense and shallow because judging from the number of equally mind boggling comments left by certain enthusiastic readers, there Are people who understand these compositions or at least managed to Read the whole painful length through and Apparently understood. Some of the blogs i visited had entries that were incredibly abstract , requiring much thought and speculation to determine “whAt on EARTH is this about??”. These deep dark intEnse thoughts and questions of life are beyond my 18 year old comprehension. Thus, To me, These writers just come across as less than skillfull novelists blowing the most random situations, thoughts and emotions into dramatic messy plots with the Appearance of Intrigue and some deeper phillosophic meaning that no amount of Me provoking my Boggled mind will enable full understanding on my side. Again this could be just a testimony of my simple shallowness and lack of Phillosophic tendencies.

i wouLD like to add a little something here.>

“What happens when you pull the caterpillar’s head while it’s body is moving slow? itS Dead.. thus nothing is left”

(Source: xxxxxxx)

Before you people get all excited and take the caterpillar’s Head part literally Like i Did , it actually has some other deeper Meaning. When and If i find out what it is i’ll elaborate on that, in the meantime anyone with any mind boggling comments on this post or on the Dead Caterpillar should not refrain from approaching me verbally or otherwise. i am in truth curious to find out the meaning of “pulling the caterPillar’s head” and will therefore gladly listen to any speculations, mind boggling or not.
