humbug · empty, insincere talk
noun, verb, interjOne way to hold this centre: a fine-sounding speech that turns out to be an empty box. The words are warm, important, full of good feeling — and there is nothing inside them. From that box you can reach everything here: the talk itself, the one-word answer you throw at it, the act of using such talk on somebody, and the person who lives by it.
humbug · peppermint sweet
nounA second, separate centre, and it is something you can put in your mouth: a hard little sweet the size of a thumb, striped dark brown and cream, tasting of peppermint, sold by weight in a paper bag. It is not soft, so you suck it and it lasts. Whether this picture has anything at all to do with empty talk is not known, so it is kept apart here rather than forced into the same story.
