Fishslappin'

Being the soft creatures that we are, it can be difficult to withstand big hurts, physical and psychological.

When life gives you a fishslap in the face it can be quite the cold wet swot! I've noticed that for some people, seafood propelled injuries can have such a deep and lasting impact that they become highly sensitive to the smell of fish and nearly expect to have bream wallop their snouts.

I've noticed that even some time after having undergone a traumatic or unpleasant experience, when confronted by a wholly new problem in an entirely different context it is common to paste ones knowledge of the past onto to the current predicament. You see the head of a pig, yet expect the tail of a fish. Then you start to treat a pig like a fish and accidentally drown it.

I think we may all be guilty of such illogical behaviour at times.

Guess you've got to listen for the squeals and grunts.

Curious flavour.
