Overease
Several people have asked me to explain where the name "overease" came from.
Here's how it originated: a friend and I have a long history of planning (and never actually eggs-ecuting) an egg-themed zine. Individual issues would have had titles drawn from different styles of cooking eggs. Hence, overeasy.
Overeasy, though, was taken on blogger by someone who never used it but still prevented me from having it, so I chose overease.
And an odd pronunciation of my initials might also be construed as being contained in overease.
And then there's the fact that we Americans have it too easy compared to much of the rest of the world...
So, you see, the signifier is polyvalent.
