Stockholm Syndrome

[datlowen]

Apparently some of you appreciated the relative sanity with which I conducted my last post. Now I have to make sure that the zany posts are EXTRA ZANY so that the few breaths of fresh air are more meaningful for you. You love me because I abuse you. You'd be lost without my strong guidance. You really need to stop falling down the stairs. You're so

Dude! You totally need to win a medal in the Olympics. Except then I'll feel mad lame, what with not having a PhD OR an olympic medal. BUT. You would get so much play, yeah? And be a human interest story! They could interview your family about your tragedies. You might ahve to make some up.

Also, I think there's an article in the NYTimes today that mentions that forest-starting-wtih-a-K thign (OMG I AM that lazy to not scroll up and figure out what it was!)

I TOTALLY WILL MEDAL IN THE OLYMPICS!! Totally. But you would not be lame. I mean, hi, I dress up like a man every day but it doesn't mean anythign when I do it.

My family would TOTALLY make up tragedies about my life. TELL THEM ABOUT THE CHILDHOOD LUEKEMIA, MOM!!

Katyn! There's an article about it in the Times? Actully, that makes sense. I think it's right about this time that it was discovered?

[mearagrrl]

Hah! The childhood leukemia and the PAINFUL HORRIBLE "OMGI'MGAY" thing. Plus THE PAIN OF A SECOND BUSH ADMINISTRATION! YES!

OK, no Katyn in the Times. Something else starting with a K. It was an article about Russian Holidays.

Har. Please, we all know there are no gay athletes. THERE ARE NO GAYS HERE. PLEASE MOVE ALONG KTHX.

Russian holidays? Maybe...KRISTMAS?!?!?

Schadenfreude does not need to be capitalized.

Unless of course it starts a sentence like mine above.

*bows*

[datlowen]

Actually, all German nouns need to be capitalized. Their words, their rules, man.

[loatiloat]

Hmmm, I think though as English continues to adopt the word that it starts to follow the rules of English.

I have seen it with a lower case s in many texts.

[datlowen]

Only if you consider it as having been adopted by English. I don't think of it as a English word, though, which is why I italicized it. If it were an English word there's no reason for me to have done that. See? It all makes sense.

i'd laugh at BG if i weren't slack-jawed in horrified wonder.

Yay for you and your curling! What a lovely thing to hear.
Beige Guy stormed out? Jeez...some people just take themselves too seriously .
He voted for Bush? That induces eye-gouging feelings.

YAY! I KNOW. He exasperates me to no end. On the evaluation at the end I was all, "You guys [meaning Georgina and Julie] did a great job! But don't be afraid to cut people off when they're babbling on about nothing."

IT WAS SO AWESOME YAY

Then after they told him he was wrong about the amount of weight needed to raise a stone to center, he left the club in a huff.

CURLING DIVA!

(I think your curling is awesome, too, and it's exciting to hear that a world champeen thinks you have what it takes.)

[datlowen]

TOTAL curling diva. Without any reason to be one. I stab him.

(Thanks! I smoocha you, too!)
