As used by some journalists, particularly sportswriters, "gaffe" becomes an imagined synonym for any kind of mistake, e.g., a dropped ball by a player in a baseball game. Philosophers and psychologists interested in the nature of the gaffe include [[Freud]] and [[Gilles Deleuze]]. Deleuze, in his ''Logic of Sense'', places the gaffe in a developmental [[process]] that can culminate in stuttering.

[[Society]] is the offspring of age upon age of trial and '''error'''; it is what [[survive]]d the selective adjustments and readjustments in the successive stages of [[mankind]]'s agelong rise from [[animal]] to [[human]] levels of [[planet]]ary [[status]]. The great danger to any [[civilization]]--at any one [[moment]]--is the threat of breakdown during the time of [[transition]] from the established [[method]]s of the past to those new and better, but untried, procedures of the future.[http://urantia.org/cgi-bin/webglimpse/mfs/usr/local/www/data/papers?link=http://mercy.urantia.org/papers/paper81.html&file=/usr/local/www/data/papers/paper81.html&line=188#mfs]
