[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

right up there with calling your spouse "Mother", Tep.
Except they're not kidding. And we used to get concern trolls, you know...How David Simon Exploits The Black Community.
Or maybe it was fighting with Balmer's Lone Neocon.
oh, honey...would that there were only the one.
I'm sure it's a verbal tic, not an attempt to one-up me or be an extremely annoying echo, but, again, it drives me bugfuck.
echolalia! it's a thing that some autistic people (probably amongst others) do.
Her, a nanosecond behind me: "...oth!"
I know a couple people with that verbal tic. Sometimes it bugs me, but I generally get used to it. My therapist will try to finish sentences for me, but not in an obnoxious way, but more in a empathetic way. It REALLY bugged me at first but I've just not been noticing it lately.
The other verbal tic I don't understand is when someone always finishes your sentence with you. And if you've never experienced it, I don't know if I can really convey what it's like.Oh, we had a Stage Manager that did that. Yes. Very annoying. But eerily accurate. Like some strange pyschic. I started thinking/using bigger unusual words to throw her off. NSM. FREAKY and annoying.
As for the lol. I wonder if some folks use that instead of ::grin:: It is less typing, all one hand, and for those hunt/peck folk like my uncle, the letters are right next to each other. Once again, laziness prevails. Just a working theory.
OK, I really should get back to reading scripts. The damn things keep putting me to sleep. Ya. Not a good sign. Not hopeful for high single ticket sales for the rest of the season. :: sigh ::

My ex did this. I pointed it out to him once, and he had no idea he was doing it. I think it's an involuntary physical expression of paying attention, if that makes sense -- like, they're imprinting what you're saying into their consciousness, and it accidentally comes out their mouth as well. For some reason, I feel really sympathetic toward it, like it's the kind of tic I could see myself developing very easily. It's still kind of annoying, though. I really don't think people are even aware of doing it.
I did an experiment on a friend of ours once. I noticed that when I started to talk, he started talking about something else on top of me. So at a gathering I would let silences fall, wait a few seconds for anyone else to say anything, start to speak, and 100% of the time the friend would begin to say something else. He's an older guy, and I suspect he has unacceptable views of men being more important than women. Hubby didn't believe me till I ran the experiment again with him paying attention, then Hubby just said, "He can't help it." Hubby sometimes has odd views too.

I'm guilty of this one, but I try to watch it. It's actually considered a symptom of ADD.
