<p style="text-align:center;">When their conversations became too hard for me to follow, I don’t know how this could’ve happened, I’d had, NO troubles at all, chiming in, at the right places from before, so, how come, I can’t understand a word they’re saying now?  Are they, talking, gibberish???</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">When their conversations became too hard for me to follow, maybe, maybe, maybe I’ll, I’ll, I’ll just, STOP sitting in the living room where they are, because I want to hide the fact, that I can’t follow their conversations anymore, and, there is, NO better way to do that, than to make, my exit gracefully!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">When their conversations became too hard for me to follow, how is it even possible?  I can’t understand it!  Am I, getting DUMBER?  Or, are the topics they’re talkin’ ‘bout totally, irrelevant to me, is that why, I can’t follow?  That must be it then!  Besides, I’d never, paid attention, to things that doesn’t interest me since I was a young child anyways………</p>
