Word of the Day: Egocentric

When me told me’s Monster Uncle (the good one), that me start me’s own blog, he says, “You’s one egocentric monster.”

Me was going to ask him what he means, but Monster Uncle was watching the Super Mow. Me’s not supposed to bother Monster Uncle when he’s watching the Super Mow or Monster Lady Wrestling.

Dictionary says that “egocentric” means “having or regarding the self or the individual as the center of all things.”

Me still did not understand so me asked Monster Sister, “What does ‘egocentric’ mean.”

She said, “YOU, monster dummy.”

Me’s Monster Sister was no help, as usual, so me decided to do some research.

Me think that “centric” means like “center,” but we don’t know this word “ego.” Me searched for this word “ego” and now me thinks me understand the meaning.

“Ego” is a some kind of snack that you do NOT want to share with anybodies. When peoples ask me for me’s ego, me’s supposed to say “L’Eggo me Ego!”

That’s why me thinks the word “egocentric” means when ego is the center of your’s life. You don’t want to share with anybodies. Me’s think this word “egocentric” is kind of like being selfish.

Me not “egocentric.”

Me prefer pancakes.

Word of the Day: Ruminate

Today’s word is “ruminate.”

Me asked Monster Sister, “You still mad about what the lady said in the grocery store?”
“No!” she said. Then, she slammed her door in my face.
Me opened the door again. “Then, why did you eat five Pop Tarts?” Me’s sister only eats Pop Tarts when she is very upset.
“I’m ruminating!” she shouted. “So, leave me the BLEEP alone.” Me’s sister not allowed to swear, so she says “BLEEP” instead.
“What does ‘ruminate’ mean?” I ask.
“Why don’t you ruminate over it, and think about it yourself,” she said.
Me thinks me’s Monster Sister don’t know what the word means, so me decide to look it up in the dictionary.

“Ruminate” means “to reflect deeply on a subject.” It means to think about something over and over and over and over again. Me wonders what Monster Sister is ruminating about.

Me thinks ruminate would make a good name for a superhero. If me’s a superhero, me would call myself “The Ruminator.” Me would be better than all other superheros and villains, because me would have thought of everything. Me could never be beaten.
