    Lets hear your
    Menusha/minutia

    Menusha or minutia, However you spell it, the question remains: How do we avoid getting stuck in it? First let's get a handle on: What is it? From dictionary.com...

    Mi·nu·ti·a (n): A small or trivial details: From Late Latin mintiae, petty details, from Latin mintia, smallness, from mintus, small.

    Examples:

    Facetious and abstemious contain all the vowels in the correct order, as does arsenious, meaning "containing arsenic."

    The only 15 letter word that can be spelled without repeating a letter is uncopyrightable.

    The names of the three wise monkeys are: Mizaru: See no evil, Mikazaru: Hear no evil, and Mazaru: Speak no evil.

    The RCA dog was named Nipper
    Betty Boop's dog was named Pudgy

    So what are some petty details you can come up with?

    Shouldn't there be a fourth monkey? Smell no evil, what would his name be?

    Minutia is what we smell when we go into someone's house. It tells too much about a person at times. I remember getting into a boyfriend's car and smelling perfume... Now everyone gets sniffed.

    Minutia is dog farts, and cigarette butts scattered around an outdoor ashtray, a discarded fast food bag on the sidewalk. It's all the dirty looks floating in a cloud of perfume you try to ignore while hurrying through the mall.

    Is there positive minutia that is odorless?
