I'm So Freaking Funny :-D
Wednesday, March 10, 2010
C [co-worker]: Where is my boyfriend? I've been waiting to see him for days.
Me: I don't know. Have you tried calling him?
C: I just said "I can't wait to see you. I miss you so much sad face".
Me: Wait. Did you just speak an emoticon?
C: What?
Me: Did you just say "I miss you so much sad face?"
C: Yeah.
Me: Were you calling him Sad Face, or did you just speak an emoticon from a text you sent him?
C: Um, maybe?
Me: No, it's hilarious! I think we should do this now. Let's make it a thing. "I just bought the perfect pair of jeans smiley face."
C: Shut up.
Me: "My boyfriend and I just had a fight pointy eyebrows squiggly mouth".
C: No, really. Shut up.
Me: Oh, I'm sorry sad face. I didn't mean to make you mad tongue sticking out.
And yet, somehow, I lived.
Me: I don't know. Have you tried calling him?
C: I just said "I can't wait to see you. I miss you so much sad face".

HAHAH! Backslash letter m forwardslash!
Uhm, i do that on a daily basis... SHOCKED FACE!
But mostly, i'm doing it as some kind of social commentary, smiley face, and i think it probably drives my husband bananas, sad face.
if i was drinking something while reading this it probably would have shot out my nose.
I once went on a date with a guy who used the phrase ZzzzOh my God. First date. Only date.
That is too funny! I'm getting totally fed up with the direction this world is going in with regards to language and writing. Seriously, drives me nuts!
I am totally going to start doing this. I already speak things like "oh em gee" and "berb (brb)" in actual conversation, and will sometimes pronounce things in lolcat.
Oh, hey, is this why I have no friends IRL?
I am this said co-worker and I just wanted to clarify that I do not speak like that on a regular basis. I use proper english, for the most part, and when I said this I was very sleep deprived and frustrated at the time. I just wanted to make sure everyone knew this so I don't seem like an air head.
Oh em gee!
C., I kid. Our conversation was just too funny. And everyone, C is no airhead. I swear.
This post made my day, hehe semicolon two closing parenthesis. It never came in my mind that we could use verbal emoticons in our conversation, colon letter d.
After re-reading my comment I have come to the conclusion that I sounded like a b****. I am not mad that my dear Schmutzie put this conversation of ours up, I am actually quite flattered because it was one of my moments of complete randomness and silliness. If Schmutzie put half of our strange, sometimes inappropriate, conversations online well...we let's just say we may have some people offended and others with liquids pouring out their nose. Smiley face.
My 13 y.o. has recently taken to speaking in lolcat. I haz chocolate milk?
Don't worry C, we didn't for a moment think you were an airhead!
One of my brothers speaks his punctuation marks when he has to repeat himself.
"Are you gonna eat that"
*silence*
"ARE YOU GOING TO EAT THAT QUESTION MARK"
This is hilarious! I must admit that what I do is accentuate either exclamation points or question marks by drawing the sign in the air with my finger. haha, So as I finish asking the question, I'll draw the question mark, as if there is a doubt that I'm actually asking a question.
Somehow, some way, I'm doing this in my next work meeting.
the comments to this post are almost as funny as the post itself
