I was watching the Simpsons last night, the episode where Grandpa makes a ladyfriend who then dies. It's an odd little episode, but the point is I just realised I'm using the same Freudian slip scripting device here ("I get two red ones for my back spasms, a yellow one for my arrhythmia, and two of the bluest eyes I've ever seen in my life.")

The comic was made a good couple of weeks back (I have myself a buffer now), but I think the parallel stands.
