I don’t wish to mock the afflicted, and I am sure it was well-meant, but I was just invited to join a group – I’m quoting here – “where you disconnect from all stress, strain and struggle and connect to your greater self with processes, support and mental tools that will mafiest desires!”
“Mafiest“? Setting aside whether it will teach you to spell, almost every word of this invitation is meaningless new age bollocks, and anyhow, my beloved and I will disconnect from whatever ails us at 2.30 this afternoon by meeting two friends and having a spot to eat and some beers at the Pig’s Ear in Old Church Street round the corner.
