[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.

But...but...that's the best way to park!

Oh, yes, if you are an ANNOYER!

there's one section of town near me where you're required to back into the spaces (angle parking on a busy street).

The business district in my neighborhood just got a bunch of angled, back-in parking spots last year. The angled parking I am totally down with! It makes for a ton more spots. The back in is stupid to me. Most people are bad at it & the traffic gets all jammed up while everyone waits for someone to back in. Ostensibly it is "safer" but you can't actually see the road any better when you are fronting out unless the cars on either side of you are shorter than yours!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Maybe excessive lol-ism is the textual equivalent of the people who have the unfortunate nervous habit of laughing after everything they say, no matter what it is. I know a LOT of people (mostly women, sadly) who do this. The laugh isn't because they consider themselves such wags, but because it's a nervous habit, or possibly ingrained self-denigration.

Sometimes it seems like the typed version of "like".

So, like, we went to the mall and we were totally, like, "lets get cinnabon" and we, like, did.

not your mom's socks.

if you mash the current - fabulous - LOL discussion with Natter's zombie debate (and, as I may have just had way too much sugar, I happen to have done so), you may come to the conclusion (as I, with all the sugar, have) that over LOL-ing is a zombie-driven behavior... or something along those lines. Kind of like drooling in real-time?

Although the point is useless because KTs omega-alpha description is so much more on target.

Ironically, while I HATE backward parkers I am totally LOLing at the backwards-parking dance of annoyance!

Now I'm picturing zombies lurching around, muttering "LOL....LOL...." instead of "Braiiiiiiinnnnnnssssssss...."

You know it!

Heh. This is my car: [link] (that's not *my* car, but that's the type of car I have, in white), and now I'm picturing it doing a backwards, butt-wiggling car dance.

It's a wee little spud of a car.
