October 25, 2019 - 42 - "Textovers & Postovers"


Textovers


      You know how you get those fragments of thoughts and words at the end of texts?  Like, you've written one thing, but then change it, without deleting everything you wrote before.  You add a phrase, or switch out a word, but below your cursor is all the 'didn't make the cut, but didn't get deleted' stuff.  

     So (hopefully) you delete all that mess before you actually hit 'send'.  'cause, for sure, sometimes that stuff can be  embarrassing.   If only that it illustrates the incredible messiness of your mind.  (But that's no secret with me.  I should probably just make a practice of leaving it alllll in.)


     Anyway, I call these sentence fragments and edited-out stuff:  Textovers.     It's like leftovers...but for unconsumed messages.



  New Thought

     I invented this word.  Or, well, I think I did.  (You never can tell.  Michael believes he invented that 'knock knock' joke with the punchline "Olive you!", but I've heard it my whole life.) 

    If you haven't ever heard something, (or even forget ever hearing something), when you come up with this 'new' thought, ...it definitely feels like you invented it.

     But what I'm trying to say is that I do this a lot.  So much, in fact, that I felt the need to call it something.  


Postovers


     It's not just while texting, either.  I do it even more with these blog posts.  I'll add in stuff, then take it out, then change up stuff altogether.   At the end of the post there are an awful lot of random remaining thoughts, words, quotes, and images.   

     So, I  named these:  postovers.  



My Sniglets


     I'm realizing that there's a trend here:  three of the four sniglets I've invented, have the word 'overs' at the end:

          Three Similar Sniglets:

                  Chreftovers-This is the word for holiday decorations that remain in your home 

                         after the holiday and have become so familiar to you that you can no longer 
                         see them.  (From Christmas-Leftovers, for that one ornament you sat up on     
                         the bookshelf...but evolved to cover that string of pumpkin lights you aren't   
                         noticing are hanging on your deck railing.) 

                 Textovers-Bits of writing edited out of the body of a text, but remaining in a 
                         jumble at the end.

                 Postovers-Bits of writing edited out of the body of a blog post, but remaining in a  

                        jumble at the end.

          
The Fourth 'Not Like the Others' Sniglet:   

                 Ambicognitive-The ability to think of more than one thing at a time.

     This past week I've been saving up the leftovers of my brain, and my quote searches, and random other stuff to illustrate what I'm talking about.  And I've decided to share it with you.  (Be excited.)

     Look beneath today's quote to see my postovers collection for this past week.

sniglet (/ˈsnɪɡlɪt/) is an often humorous word made up to describe something for which no dictionary word exists. Introduced in the 1980s TV comedy series Not Necessarily the News, sniglets were generated and published in significant number, along with submissions by fans, in several books by Rich Hall, beginning with his SnigletsSniglets for Kids, and More Sniglets in the mid-1980s.[1]

some postovers from yesteraday's post
     I've always heard of 'good old American ingenuity', but we Norte Americanos haven't cornered the market.

  Having a house in Mexico has given us a real appreciation of the attitude 'where there's a will, there's a way.'  This is especially true when it comes to getting things delivered and installed.

 Pork rind is the culinary term for the skin of a pig. It can be used in many different ways.
It can be fried or roasted in pork fat (lard) to produce the snack called pork rinds in American English and pork scratchings in British English, served in small pieces as a snack or side-dish,[1] but is called pork crackling in the UK when the rind is left on a roasted pork joint. The frying renders much of the fat attached to the uncooked rind, causing the size of the cooked product to be reduced considerably.more at https://www.brainyquote.com/topics/brain-quotes

I wake up in the morning at six o'clock
They say there may be rain but the sun is hot
I wish I had some time just to kill today
And I wish I had it down for every bill I've got to pay
Here I am
Just waiting for this storm to pass me by

olombia[edit]

Chicharrones is the term for pork rinds in Colombia. Two kinds of chicharrón exist: chicharrón toteado (exploded pork crackling), which has no meat in it and is similar to the lighter, commercial version, and chicharrón cocho, which is usually made with part of the pork meat attached to the skin. This makes for a crispy skin and a soft, juicy meat. It is traditionally served with beansricefried eggsavocado, and plantain in a typical plate called bandeja paisa.

Canada[edit]

Scrunchions is a Newfoundland term for small pieces of pork rind or pork fatback fried until rendered and crispy. They are often used as a flavoring over other foods, such as salt fish and potatoes, and mainly used as a condiment for fish and brewis.[6][7]
In Quebec, they are often called oreilles de Christ (Christ ears) and are eaten almost exclusively as part of traditional cabane à sucre meals.

Costa Rica[edit]

Chicharrones are commonly served in homes or snack in bars and restaurants, little sodas (small restaurants with home-cooking flavor business) also adds in their menu Vigoron or empanadas with chicharrones and famous snack dish called chifrijo.
Preparation could change from using pig fat as base, boiling and later frying, but many prefer using a wok-like pot and wood-fire cooking.

Mexico[edit]

Mexico is one of the world's largest producers and consumers of pork rinds, known as chicharrón. It may still have fat attached, called in Spanish chicharrón con gordo in central México.
It is commonly served in homes across Mexico. It can be served in a soup sometimes called chicharrón con chile (pork rind with chilli sauce) or salsa de chicharrón (pork rind sauce). It is often served as an appetizer, or even offered as a snack at family reunions. However, chicharrones can be purchased on the street[8] and are usually eaten with hot sauce and lime juice.
One popular breakfast is salsa de chicharron, (also chicharrón con chile or just chicharrón in some regions) cooked in green tomato or tomato salsa spiced with epazote. If the liquid is drained, the pork rind can be used in tac
