OMG weird flashback!

I just came across a friend from primary school on Facebook and this suddenly reminded me of some pointless… thing I used to do as a kid, that I had “developed,” and the name I gave it was his surname. I know I’m weird.

For you see his name is “Origer,” which, well in French the -er ending is a form of infinitive. So “origer” could be a verb that you could conjugate… j’orige, nous origeons etc would be I orige, we orige. Um yeah.

It gets even more pointless. The actual thing it designated was… I’d take words and sentences apart by, um, splitting them into pseudo-phonetic forms of each of their letters. So for instance C-A-T would become CEE AY TEE. This in turn could be taken apart into CEE EE EE – AY WHY – TEE EE EE and so on and so forth. From this I could work my way back up to CAT – this was called back-origer. I’d do this for pages and pages. I think there were some more rules because of course some letters would appear again and again – such as the E here. I think I also developed a version for numbers but I don’t recall the details.

Um yeah. That was all I wanted to share. 😀
