I've had a very odd experience in my life, one that has continued on for quite some time now. Every since a month ago, while listening to the Mass at my school, I realised somthing: Speech is pure jargon, none of the words that my principle was saying were making any sense to me. I was confused from my sudden revelation, and I decided not to share it, until now, when today I had another instance on listening into jargon-ese. Before I go any further, I want to say what the official, Webster's Dictionary definition of jargon is:
1) Unintelligible talk
2)The specialized vocabulary of those in the same work, way of life, etc.
Synonyms: overused terms, patter, banality
My experince was quite surreal, and I found that I was actually doing somthing that should be impossible; I was listening but I didn't understand the words. It was as if I had completly lost the ability to comprehend and speak english, and yet at the same time I was able to recognize words and phrases. It felt as if my mind had become suddenly detached, then reattached to my body. It was quite eerie.
I decided to look up 'out of body experiences' on google, and some wacky things came up, like flying, and other such things, or being transported. This was not what I felt, unlike the people in the stories I read, I was completly aware of my body and what I was doing, yet I was unable to connect intelluctually, emotionally, or even physically with my peers.
The first thing I realised was that it could be a possible side effect of the antibiotics I had stopped taking (I had recently gone of a perscription because of an infection), and I thought I was hallucinating. But... It wasn't a hallucination, it was somthing much different.
Perhaps I'm losing my grip on reality because of stress and a lack of sleep. I'm worried now, after reading my other paragraphs, that I sound insane, but I assure you, reader, that I'm not. Or maybe it's true, maybe I don't have a full deck of cards, or a couple of screws are loose, but oh well. I'm just waiting for Neo to call now.




I program computers at work and sometimes I hear the financial people having a discussion. I know the words they are using but do not understand a thing they are saying. That happens when people use what is called 'argot'.
