   The metaphors satisfy the two basic conditions for mixed metaphor: (1) they occur in textual adjacency, i.e. within a single metaphor cluster, and (2) they do not (for the most part) share any imagistic ontology or any direct inferential entailments between them.

   Does mixed metaphor dominantly occur across clause boundaries?

   • The fact that in newspaper commentaries mixed metaphor dominantly occurs across clause boundaries elegantly explains my earlier findings (although I will look at other cases below).

   Are there mixed metaphors in a single clause?

   • Mixed metaphors in a single clause The one remaining case to address are mixed metaphors within a single clause, even if this is not quite as frequent. Here, nothing in grammar sets the ontological planes apart so that the cognitive pressure to process the metaphors together is higher.

   Are mixed metaphors a natural product of default clause processing?

   • Where mixed metaphors occur across clauses no ontological clashes will be felt to begin with and secondary mechanisms to keep the clash at bay are dispensable. If this is correct, making sense of mixed metaphors is a natural by- product of default clause processing.
