I've fallen and I can't get up

A really annoying catchphrase from the late 80's/early 90's that originated from a commercial for a paramedical emergency radio for the elderly. During the commercial, and old lady falls off her walker and in the most pathetic tone of voice possible, utters this phrase into the advertised device.
Before everyone and their mom was screaming "I'm Rick James, bitch" they were screaming "I've fallen and I can't get up" in a sad attempt to be funny and witty.

Falesia

The disquieting awareness that someones importance to you, may not match that or your importance to them. That your best friend may only think of you as a mate, that someone you barely know may think of you as a mentor, that someone you love unconditionally, may have one or two conditions.

A word created by author and poet John Coney
sometimes I get falesia when I think of my girlfriend, what if she doesnt love me unconditionally?

the moral of the fable

what one is supposed to learn, as in a fable, from a given incident or experience.
son: dad why was i taken to police station for public drunkenness, even if I didn't a bottle of alcohol on me?

father, lol, the moral of the fable is, that, when you drink, and then walk around in public, even if you don't actually have the bottle on you, you still have the smell of the firewater on your breath, especially if it's something hard, like whiskey. an experienced police officer, when they come close enough to talk to you, can actually smell the stuff on your breath.
