Anthropomorphism

[WildBill]

A recent malapropism appeared in the news, courtesy of Sarah Palin.
She was talking about our Libyan situation, or somesuch, and described it
as "a squirmish". :-)

What's more troubling is that she thinks the NORTH Koreans are our allies. Sheesh.

SIA

She should know the North is communist. Korean War. Vietnam War. War Between the States.

Have you every noticed that the East is always where the bad guys are.

East Berlin, East Germany, the Middle East, East LA, etc. Even West Side Story is about gangs on the East Side of NYC.

Anthropomorphism
anthropomorphism an·thro·po·mor·phism (ān'thrə-pə-môr'fĭz'əm)
n.
The attribution of human motivation, characteristics, or behavior to nonhuman organisms or inanimate objects.

Example:

The evil gun

Classrooms are sacred. Keep guns out.

Some might say a church is holy ground and therefore sacred.

Guess that's why the amendment in SB 354 allows churches on campus to opt out, but not classrooms
