So there we were. Again. Driving along the empty road. Just the two of us. Headed down the dark road under the moonlight. With the glow from the stereo. Just after getting treasures from the store. And she did it. She said:
I think my air needs tyres.....

Burned to death?
So I was on the way back home. And mum read a shop sign.
Pusat Pembakaran Perubatan KO.... What?? I wouldn't go there...

Confused?
Troubling thought. One person is enough to drive you off the wall. It is quite amazing actually. How humans managed to start communicating. Just in case your excessively slow and didn't get the connection between the two, you need to communicate before you can drive someone up the wall. Anyway.
Hasn't the question ever crossed your mind? How did humans first start? Communicating that is. How did Uncle X tell Aunty Y that the clothes she is wearing makes her look fat? Before language was even existant. Sure, a situation like that you could act out. But how did humans come up with words. And actually manage to make others understand it. Like. Let's take doodles for example. Yes, those cute little drawings you do in class when you are bored. So how did the word doodles come about. Did the cave man just go:
"Ugh! Doo-do.. Doo-dle. Doodle!"
"Uga! Doodle doodle!"
While pointing to the paintings on walls of their prehistoric caves and jumping up and down like a couple of baboons that just got a banana.
Maybe? Maybe not. But these were just the simple things that could be seen. What about. The word funny. How did that come about. What about the word 'about'. I could go on forever. But it's a very fascinating thing.
Well, since this is of course a blog of theory. Let's make one. I say that. Hmm. I need to sleep on it. ;)
I thought about aliens teaching us but then again. Who thought the aliens. And it'll be back to square one..
OH! I've got it! A sudden burst of gamma rays from the sun. Suddenly mutated the prehistoric human mind and language just happened? Hah. It could be.
