In Hebrew there's a slang expression called "teaspoon state" to describe just that. It's when the sight of a teaspoon or the pronunciation of the word are considered hillarious. Usually it involves late hours of the night and the like, of course.I think we need to introduce this expression into the English language. I t heart it.
TEASPOON STATE!
It is a bee-yoo-tee-ful day outside, and I just had a nice walk and then sat on my front steps talking on the phone. And it's only 1 pm! I am more glad than ever that I didn't force myself to go to the post office on Saturday, when it was all apocalyptic outside.
Oh no, Peter Jennings.
Oh no! Will I ever get my chance to be Mrs. Jennings #8??
Oh, a little earworm never killed anyone.

Is there a little dance that goes with this? I bet there is.
I am good. need lunch now, but otherwise ok.

"Butch it up" makes me think of my dad in the 50s with his little flattop all butch-waxed up. Edit: Actually, my dad used to go by Butch. Shh! Don't tell.
I have a brother-in-law Butch. Butching it up would mean something different.
I had an Uncle Butch and also a Nana Butch.

So far, there are only derisive facial expressions, but I have a couple ideas to expand on.
I need lunch now too. I decided no country potato second breakfast, but an apple instead, and I'm ravenous.

Yes, but she was a loser.
I need to buy a present for a three year old girl I don't know much about. Except the mother is my best friend, so I know that most of the things I think of, she'll already have thought of. So far, my gifts have been Jamaican, or had a krav logo on. I can just be that aunt, can't I? The one that gives krav stuff? Well -- given my schedule, it's either that or logoed swag from my desk job.
