Glossolalia.
Talk: To commit an indiscretion without temptation, from an impulse without purpose.
Idiot: A member of a large and powerful tribe whose influence in human affairs has always been dominant and controlling. The Idiot's activity is not confined to any special field of thought or action, but "pervades and regulates the whole." He has the last word in everything; his decision is unappealable. He sets the fashions of opinion and taste, dictates the limits of speech and circumscribes conduct with a deadline.
-Ambrose Bierce: The Devil's Dictionary
pub. 1911
Tweet: An industrial process by which banality is refined into narcissistic hysteria.
Blogger: A reptilian subspecies of the hominid genus given to masturbatory introspection and electronic excretion.
