Somnolence, Invective
Somnolence- a state of drowsiness; a strong desire to sleep
Ex: Playing All Quiet on the Western Front during a Netflix and chill sesh is more likely to induce somnolence than to act as an aphrodisiac. Any girl put in that situation will probably fall into such a deep sleep that it’ll seem as if she’s one of the soldiers in the film being hit with mustard gas in a trench in Ypres.
Invective- abusive language or criticism
Ex: The husband and wife character actors in the Tenement Museum in the Lower East Side let out a foul stream of invective directed at one another. “You lazy witch! I leave for 12 hours to make money for this family and when I come home all there is to eat is another borscht soup! It’s always borscht, borscht, borscht! *The husband cracks a sharp backhanded smack on the wife’s cheek, producing a bright red mark. The wife bursts into tears* *Mrs. Feinstein begins to shepherd her 4th grade class out of the room, sensing that this field trip is getting a little bit out of hand* “Okay, class. What do you say we get out of here and go get a real New York bagel!? No, no Hannah, I don’t think that woman was actually hurt. Yes, yes it did look, and sound very real. I’ll admit, those sobs were pretty genuine, but that’s just what we call good acting…I think. And that awful scarlet mark on her face, I think they just have a great make up department…you know what, let’s just not think about that. This will be our little secret, kids. Nobodies mommy or daddy needs to know anything about this. I know a great deli around the block. Nothing clears the mind like a freshly brined kosher dill spear, it’s like the neuralyzer from the Men in Black movies. Ah, you guys wouldn’t get that. We’ll just get a schmear on a poppy seed bialy and call it a day.”
