Have now skimmed rather than skipped that discussion. In context of that discussion isn't "made me LOL" now Bitchspeak for "I found it really repulsive"? [Er being funny. I'm know if that is what you wanted to say, that is not how you would tell me.]

Nah, I just meant that I don't use LOL unless an actual laughing noise made it past my lips!

Happy Feet
She heard the ball land on the floor with a wet smack. Turning around, she saw him standing there, hands spread across the lattice of the childproof gate like starfish crawling along the seafloor. Bouncing on his feet a little, he tipped his head back and gave her a wide, not-very-toothy, smile. This was a game they played whenever she washed the kitchen floor. He wasn’t allowed in while she cleaned, but when she was done he got a reward from the cookie jar. It had become automatic. She heard his squeal on her way to open the penguin, “Tookie!”

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Heh. I couldn't disappoint Bev! Plus, it was nice to do a little cheerier drabble than what's been coming out of my pen up to now.
