Robtomist<\/strong>: \/rob tom ist<\/em>\/ Rosemary had started out optimistic, but marriage to Rob had taken its’ toll on her good nature and she felt like she had married a robtomist. She decided to create a lovely garden after mulch thought. Her garden was her therapy, because he was a creeper who had tended to lilac a sidewalk and perennially wore his bachelor buttons while out with some hoe. Sod him, the rake…he thought he was so poplar! She turfed aside her negative feelings when out in her garden and with thyme, grew more sage. Her efforts in the garden helped rid her Hostality and control her impatiens. Her favourite fantasy while working the earth was to plan ways she could root out her rotten husband, the son of a birch: hit him in the gourd; beet him; artichoke him and let the life leek from him. But instead of pining fir him, she decided that sooner or later he’d begonia and she could prune him out of her life forever. Dill death do us part, indeed! She rose from her planting as all was well with the Cosmos, spruced herself up and went into the house to catch another episode of her favourite show, Lawn Order.<\/p>\n

Pollyanntidote<\/strong>: \/-pol-ee-ANN-ti-doht-<\/em>\/ Although little Valerie exhibited a constant love of life, and an exuberance for discovering beauty in even the most mundane things which was almost infectious, her older sister, Sharon, was immune to such charming behavior, and she would almost always attempt to deter Valerie’s optimism with her version of a Pollyanntidote. So when Valerie tried to show Sharon how the broken bottle she’d found made the prettiest little rainbows on the sidewalk, Sharon said, “Does it still do that when it’s all covered with blood?” Valerie put the bottle down but, undeterred, she looked around, spotted a butterfly, and promptly went running off after it. Sharon thought she spotted a patch of poison ivy in the direction that Valerie was heading, and she idly wondered if a big, itchy rash might curb some of her sister’s enthusiasm. Etymology:<\/em> Pollyanna – an excessively or blindly optimistic person (in allusion to the influential novel “Pollyanna” about an inspiringly cheerful little girl) + Antidote – a remedy or counteragent (from Greek, antidoton “given as a remedy”) Created by:<\/em> Tigger.<\/p>\n
