Ethiccups

Ethics.
Hiccups.
Ethiccups.

If a blessing is the right way to respond to a sneeze, what's the right response for the hiccups?

Answer: a scaring.

So, a spooky blessing should cover any bodily function.

Cue the holy ghost.

Pray.
Wraith.
Praith.

  1. What's the difference between a wraith and a wight?

    No, it's not a riddle, it's an actual question. And don't bring the Isle of Wight into it, okay?

  2. Wikipedia first says that "In its original usage the word wight described a living human being."

    Which means the difference between a wraith and a wight is basically everything.

    But then Wikipedia says, "More recently, the word has been used within the fantasy genre to describe undead or wraith-like creatures: corpses with a part of their decayed soul still in residence."

    So, then the difference is nothing.

    Which means that the answer must be somewhere between nothing and everything.

    I'm sure that helps, and isn't just me being an ass about this topic of rotting creatures, am I wight?
