Balonaphobia on the Rise
And Dylan’s Nobel Prize Didn’t Help
Is there a term for a growing suspicion of things people tell you? I looked it up and can’t find one. Balonaphobia maybe?
It’s not because of the recent political falsehood fest, although that did throw gas on the fire. It might just be age with a splash of cynicism. Whatever, it’s afflicting me.
Take song lyrics. Take, say, Bob Dylan.
