therapist -> the rapist????

It actually happened last night when I was reading a magazine before bedtime... <br/><br/>I admitted that I was pretty tired at that time. The article I was reading was about boyfriend/non-husband (i.e. those guys who commit to live with you but can't commit to get married). Suddenly I skimmed the words "the rapist"...<br/><br/>WHAT? I was thinking. That's pretty scary, how come the subject of rapist would come up??<br/><br/>And so I took a closer look again, and actually it was, "... therapist said..." <br/><br/>It's pretty funny that "therapist" whom we go to and "the rapist" whom we try our best to avoid are actually just a difference of space! <br/>

<p>so weird, you must be exhausted at the time. </p><p>anyway, it will be a good puzzle.</p>

Yea, I thought it's kind of weird too, since it had never happened to me before... <br/>

.... the first&nbsp;time i glimpsed the word "rapist", i thought the meaning is " a rapid man"... am i pretty tired either?

no... it just means that you don't know who a rapist is... <br/>

<font size="3">i think it is just "word" sensitive.&nbsp; I have encountered the exact same situation before. although I know the meaning of the word, I just couldn't help associating it with some other words. weird.</font>

maybe it has something to do with the brain... you know sometimes you want to write "apple" but you hear "orange" so you write down "orange" instead of "apple"? I always do that... <br/>
