lol...

You know what I hate more than anything, forgetting about something...what was I talking about?

*sigh*

What actually is annoying me at the moment is that I cannot remember what I wanted to write about (I try to avoid writing "blog" as it is such a dirty dirty term...)

In lieu of what I was going to talk about, that which I cannot remember, I would like to take this opportunity to take you all on a journey, a journey delving deep deep deep into my personal life, a journey about the letters L, O and L and how they changed my life...

Straight up, I am in fact now a more interesting person because I use 'lol' frequently in my writing, I have even unfortunately started say it...you know you have reached the VERY bottom when you add 'lol' to your every day vernacular, and evidentially I have reached the bottom...I would even go as far as saying I am now very much so on my way to China.

Once upon a time, I was extremely morally opposed to using the term 'lol' (lots of laughter (which in retrospect is quite lame core (used exclusively with the permission of its creator Zach Raftery), it could also mean lots of lolling, in which case you end up in a vicious circle of just insane repetitive nonsense).

It was only until I realised the magical power of the 'lol' that I started to be a user...and even to this day I am an extremely avid user.

This magical power I refer to, is of course the power of alleviation, specifically the alleviation of awkward and potentially sexual dangerous situations.

For example:

A: "Fuck you, dude"

B: "Your sister did the other night"

And right there, whether the sex actually occurring is plausible, (providing of course 'A' does indeed have a sister)  or not and 'A' is preparing to "Go Postal" (I love that there is a Wiki page on "Going Postal") on 'B's' ass the following may/should occur, irrespective of whether 'B' is telling the truth or not...

B: "lol"

A: "haha I was about to go postal on your ass"

Also, the use of the occasional "=P" doesn't go astray...

If we use the previous two comments as an example;

B: "lol =P" or "=P"

 The smiley can either be used in conjunction with 'lol' or on its own, as it serves the same purpose, however if you deem the severity of the damage already done significant, or that what you have unwittingly or wittingly written is very hard NOT to believe, and you think that both 'lol' & '=P' are required, you may already be fucked"

A: "haha I was about to go postal on your ass"

I may/may not need help...
Enjoy your week
