Folks, we have to catch them while they are young...studies have shown (unscientific studies of course) that ignoranticism can be genetic. Given the fact that I am a reformed ignorantic, I am constantly looking for signs of ignorantics in my 6 year son.
Today, he dropped his first ignorantic. It was a level one ignorantic because (1) it was not a word; (2) it was the combination of two words with a similar meaning; and (3) he used it in a sentence in its proper context. Level one ignorantics are warnings of a succession of ignorantics to come. So, when my son said to me: "Mommy, I am searching my rememory for the password to my Nick Jr. Arcade". I quickly went into ignorantics intervention, paused, and quickly asked him to repeat what he said. He thought about it. He immediately repeated "rememory" and corrected himself by saying "Oops Mommy, I should have said "memory", I guess I was trying to remember my password stored in my memory banks!" LOL! Out of the mouths of babes! Early intervention is key folks!
Ignorantics is speech, written and oral, derived from ignorance and the act of expression is the "antics". This blog is dedicated to the Ignorantics who are casual and chronic offenders. In this blog, I will share stories and commentary about individuals who find themselves in either of these categories. I would also like to inform my readers that all of the stories that I share on this Blog are “REAL” stories but the names of the Ignorantics have been changed to protect the ignorant! © 2010-19.
