Aug 11 Word of the Day
A phrase to describe someone who is cognitively degenerating. Synonym of "going off the deep end". Can have varying degrees of severity.

Reference to the song "Hey You" by Pink Floyd. The line "and the worms ate into his brain" makes no sense in an otherwise linear and literal narration throughout the lyrics.
"My boyfriend has a total case of brain worms. He told me the cat was bugged so the Feds could listen in on us having sex..."

or

"You totally stumbled over that entire sentence. Can't speak English all of a sudden? What, do you have brain worms?"

Probably the worst neighborhood in all of Philadelphia. Filled with a bunch of people who think their better then everyone since forever. Nothing good comes from fishtowners at all. This neighborhood ds shouldn’t even exist bc of how bad the people blow here. Filled w a bunch of yuppies too along w a**hole parents who try to make their sped kids good at sports but fail to attempt each time. Not one good thing i have to say about Fishtown. They all think they can fight too which is the best part.
