A little over 40 years since the 1985 version of Twilight Zone --
There was an episode from the 1980s revival of the Twilight Zone called "Wordplay" that I keep coming back to. Robert Klein plays a salesman who slowly realizes to his horror that words are taking on new meanings for everyone else but him.

i work with words for a living, so I am biased, but I really think we've got to bring back words. really useful if you imbue them with meaning and arrange them properly!
