forgot to weave in "repetitive brain injury", but I'm sure verbotomists are too clever to have arrbeeaye and would have figured it out anyway. - petaj, 2007-06-07: 03:32:00

Sentence: Eric is a redoofus. He doesn*t mean to make the same mistakes over and over. It*s just that he is a very habitual person. Once he has goofed twice, he has developed a reflex.
