@Chuck, how’s the head? If it has actually exploded, have you filled enough bowls so you won’t need to buy candy for Halloween? I just hope it was full of fun size Snickers and Three Musketeers instead of those cheap pixie sticks and bottle caps.
Another word that might fall into this category is charitable. Everyone says that the only way to be charitable is to give quietly without patting oneself on the back. If you boast that you are charitable, does that negate the charitability (is that even a word)?
Also, is there a difference between affirming to the positive i.e. I’m good enough, I’m smart enough and doggone it people like me vs, “Oh yes, I am a humble, giving, genius”?
