Don't you wish you had a job like mine? All you have to do is think up a certain number of words! Plus, you can repeat words! And they don't even have to be true!

About This Quote

This quote is a rhyming example of the grandiose. If you had a job like this one, you would have to come up with a certain number of words when you were bored or alone. You would have to have a job where you think up something and it turns out to be a word in a book. Plus, it would have to be a crazy word that no one else in the world could think of.

This is what this person does for a living. It sounds pretty easy, but it's not because there are so many people who could do this job and no one could think of all those words. It would take someone really smart and creative to come up with them all by themselves.

This person just has the gift of coming up with at least four or five words at once.
