a great absurdity of life      comes in no lesser form than...          as it comes...              when using a knife and fork... to eat a chicken thigh... or a chicken drum-stick... without the joy of using the hands... of the two households... where a chicken was eaten with a knife and fork... and where a chicken was eaten with bare hands... profanity: when enough meat remains on the bone that a dog will gladly bite... otherwise a household... where even the ends of the bones are bitten off for the livery marrow... or that grand delicacy of a chicken's neck: you cannot find more tender meat anywhere: even if it is poached...                esp. if it is poached...     and sometimes a noun is used as a verb... to chicken out...                    no alternatives: but a rephrasing... of... comfortably numb can become: comforted by numbness - comforted by a numbing...           -ing: herr gerund!                          alternatively: the chicken story... apathy: is it truly to be devoid of all pathology? or... quiet simply: to sweep under the rug... i.e. that there are too many pathologies to mind... that apathy is               a σ of pathology?
