Riley: Oh, yeah. Sorry 'bout last time. Heard I missed out on some fun. Xander: Oh yeah, fun was had. Also frolic, merriment and near-death hijinks.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

FML means fuck my life, right? Or something like that? It's negative slang, right?

signed, my facebook friends list just keeps getting younger and younger.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

brenda, I believe we need a link to the station so we can tell them what we think.

Thanks for suggesting that - I just sent them an email.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

FML means fuck my life, right?

Yes.

For my lose, Liese. As opposed to FTW, for the win.

(Lose does not look like a real word to me right now...)

Because books.

That's exactly it, Liese.

Really, P-C? I have not heard it used like that.

Maybe it's an east coast / west coast thing!

Huh! maybe the young people have been lying to me!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hee. Controversy!

Anyway, I get the point. My student and my cousin are apparently both unhappy with their current plight. They wish ill toward a) her babydaddy and his mom and b) her El Salvadorian neighbor's friend who whistled at her.

Because books.

I've only ever heard the "fuck my life" version!

Aw. Ben went out front to start tackling the walk with the shovel, and some old guy -- literally, he looks 80 -- with a snowblower just did it for him. Neighbors! Nice.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I've never heard "for my lose". Of course, I had to check, and there's a web site. Which also has an illustrated section.
