If I hear the word "narrative" one more time, I think I'm going to explode |

That word is so irritating; like fingers on a chalkboard. It's an MSM word. It seems that the word "narrative" has been used and overused in this campaign by the punditocracy and even by people on the blogs.
A "narrative" is a story or a book. This is not a Disney movie. It's a campaign for President of the United States.
