SMART TALK SMART TALK
By Dr. Winton “Windy” Prolix

FIRST PRIORITY: This redundancy, like top priority, main priority, etc., is a symptom many politicians display when they check in at the Institute for the Linguistically Impaired. We teach them that that which has priority is first. Enough said.

They also suffer from saying first of all, second of all, and so on to last of all, which is another part of the same impairment. They can have a list of priorities, but items on a list occur first, second, third, and on to last.
