when I come up with a tune, a word, a witticism ...

I use search engines to check if it's #cryptomnesia:

Eye Am (Type O Negative, Silvertomb, Crowbar) secure international representation; recently released “Cryptomnesia” video:

do you also web search your aphorisms, usernames etc. to reduce the likelihood of accidental duplication by #cryptomnesia or chance?

(quick web search to screen my original idea for #cryptomnesia)

cryptomnesia
From Mostlychilled's brain
Cursed be!

A curse uttered is jest
Two graves we do not need

#Tanka

There is a Japanese saying that if you curse someone, you should dig two graves. Sort of the like the sevenfold rule. Or the beliefs I was taught that the spirits you call on are the ones you end up living with.

My girlfriend walked in
"Nice to meet you."
