Language

Sometimes I can communicate in Jeffy/LOLcat when I can't in English. For example, waking in the middle of my sleep cycle for bathroom and water, I notice that a) my dryerful is done, b) my washerful is done, c) hColleen has a chairful of sheets waiting. So I rotate my stuff.

"Washer's yours!" I chirp on my way back to my room. Unfortunately, because I am still half asleep (and plan to stay that way), it comes out more like, "Wahoozhoors?!" and I really don't think that Ryoko's mother actually kept a seraglio.

hcolleen *looks* at me. Obviously she didn't get it either.

"Washer! It is teh yooz!" I manage.

She nods and goes back to her computer. Message relayed.

(an exploit in a wireless vending machine)

Work has, within the past month, swapped out its old vending company for a new one. I work in a call center with a bunch of geeks. Work has attempted to cater to this in their vending choices. All the new machines are state of the art and quite scary in contrast to the old vending machines that have been the same since like practically the 1970s.

It's spreading around Support like mad!

You answer a list of questions with the names of your LJ friends that any of these questions apply to. However, you cannot see the questions, only the answers unless you agree to repost this in YOUR journal. Sooooo...if you want to see the questions, you have to let me know in comments, then you have to post in your own LJ.

Note: the answers are probably going to be skewed towards support. ;D

• Sunday, 1411: IRC said there are no straight men at renfaires. Not so! Went with best friend! He bought a very large wooden sword & handled my smaller one
• Sunday, 1412: Renfaire thing was this past spring, not current. Had to haul it out for example purposes. Best Friend v.v. straight; immune to Bowie&Gackt.
