Metaphors We Live byThe now classic Metaphors We Live By changed our understanding of metaphor and its role in language and the mind. Metaphor, the authors explain, is a fundamental mechanism of mind, one that allows us to use what we know about our physical and social experience to provide understanding of countless other subjects.

The now-classic Metaphors We Live By changed our understanding of metaphor and its role in language and the mind. Metaphor, the authors explain, is a fundamental mechanism of mind, one that allows us to use what we know about our physical and social experience to provide understanding of countless other subjects. Because such metaphors structure our most basic understandings of our experience, they are "metaphors we live by"--metaphors that can shape our perceptions and actions without our ever noticing them.

In this updated edition of Lakoff and Johnson's influential book, the authors supply an afterword surveying how their theory of metaphor has developed within the cognitive sciences to become central to the contemporary understanding of how we think and how we express our thoughts in language.

You Gotta Fight... For Your Right... To TONNNNNGGUUEEE SCRAPE
I love these tongue scrapers. This was a new years resolution for this year because of all the benefits I have heard about tongue scrapping 1) Removes Bacteria 2) Better Sense of Taste 3) Activates Organs 5) Better Digestion 6) Removes Bad Breath ...to just name a few. This scraper is great quality. Its easy to clean I just run it under hot water for a few seconds after I'm done and I havent seen any gross build up or residue stick. They dont taste funny... they dont taste like anything at all to be honest.

GAMECHANGER
I didn't have terribly bad morning breath prior to using this but after adding this into my night routine, my morning breath is completely gone. Also, spicy foods seem a little more spicy these days and I think that's due to my tastebuds being so much cleaner. It feels refreshing and I highly recommend. Such a simple device, very easy to clean and so easy to take with me for traveling or just storing in my bathroom. I love it and I'm handing them out as gifts to all my family members ;)

Scrape away
Thin and lightweight, this little scraper is worth the low price. It does the job OK. I would like to have a better handle though, as it can slip from your finger's grip. Overall, this is a decent little tool to help clean your tongue.
