profound reflections upon the imminent, one-year anniversary of the birth of daidala

gibber-gabber, chitter-chatter
prittle-prattle, tittle-tattle
spout off, hold forth, spin out
bibble-babble, yadda-yadda
yakkety-yak, blah-blah
gush: logomania
slush: logorrhea
flux de mots and flux de bouche
clack, cackle, clatter
blither, blather, blabber
gabble prattle nather babble
prittle gibble twaddle twattle
guff, gas, hot air, and patter
verbosity, prolixity, fecundity, redundancy
digression, discursion, circumlocution, diversion
rambling, roving
wandering, meandering
and in closing,
mock humility,
platitudinous gratuity,
and a dash of typographic superfluity
