Just thought of another fun feature of this phenomenon – the little three-second delay as my misspoken word hangs in the air:
“So we’re headed to North Dakota for our beach vacation in a couple of weeks….Should be fun.”
(pause, during which my sentence slowly echoes back to me…)
“Wait, did I say North Dakota? I meant North Carolina.”
Sometimes I’ll keep on talking for another couple of sentences before the little bell goes off!
