emphasis

emphasis: force or intensity of expression that gives impressiveness or importance to something 

I'm sitting in a booth, at pub, drinking watered-down rootbeer.  My fingers are greasy with tater-tot crumbs, pecking at the keyboard carefully so not to smear grease everywhere.  I suppose I could use a napkin, but this matter is too pressing. No time for napkins!  Fred and Kelsey are across the booth from me, we are working on our homework.  The grizzly bearded waiter just refilled my rootbeer. And from behind the bar, I hear “I’m gunna bring in that over-sized sandwich board.”  I start laughing uncontrolably.  Fred asks what's so funny and I explain to her, "Sometimes you have to shift the emphasis on words in life, keeps things more interesting..."  Mimicking the guy from behind the bar I seductively say, "I'm gunna bring in that over-sized sandwich board."  dirty, and yet so funny.  Okay, now back to homework and tatter-tots.
