So I got...

...this spam comment that starts out:
What is Lol...? Every thing you want in Lol and Troll, Now you Get all in one Network, ThatIsLol...
...and I saved it in my spam folder because every time I look at it, my mind goes into Autocomplete and I get
What is Lol...? Thou art Lol. All that groks is Lol...
...and it hasn't failed to make me Lol yet.


(If you haven't read Stranger In A Strange Land, this might not be very funny. Or make terribly much sense, for that matter.)

You haven't been in an angst-filled emotional relationship in a really long time now, have you?

From this end of the gender spectrum, declaring LOL = Love gets your face a good slap. In a loving kind of way, of course.

Good point, and the attempts that hit the spam bucket ARE getting more creative!

'Troll and Troll! What is Troll?
It is LOL, is it not?
You have come to take back the LOL!!!'


WV: "tonPlato Sergeant" Why does that seem oddly appropriate for this discussion?

I've played an interesting thought game recently. Trying to think of which actors / actresses would play what parts in a true to the book movie version of Stranger in a Strange Land.

JD, point well-taken.

Now tell the truth - who was President the FIRST time you read it?

I read it when Nixon was president, and I was in my low teens, and I thought it was a really racy, racy piece of literature.

Yes, I lived a cloistered childhood.
