I'm not certain what it is either, but my dad has told me that I sound like one occasionally... usually if I'm annoyed about something. So I'm willing to assume that it's not a compliment.

I assign active and passive voices. Yes, I know I already did it once, but now I actually know they are and can conassign them in all of their illogical glory. Who in the world writes about a dead person like he's still up and doing things in the present tense? Of course Homer was worriedabout his repressed libido*. He isn't still worried about it! He's dead! Of course he doesn't "say" things, he "said" them a long time ago! Argh.

*my research paper deals with psychoanalytic theory and Homer's "potentially repressed libido" cameos in it.
