“She sent something funny”
“Okay… Type ‘LMAO’”
“What does that meean?”
“Laughing my ass off”
“That’s a lie, and that’s vulgar!” he exclaimed at the ridiculousness of the Sentence
“It’s a texting thing dork! Remember, you came to me because I’m good at these things and you are not. The facts dictate you listen to me O man of science”
He grumbles for a second and types the phrase into his phone “Done!”
“Let me see that” she says, snatching it without waiting for his permission “LMAO, open parentheses, my a - asterisk - asterisk is still very much attached to my body. My neighbour says it is a texting thing, and she is smarter than me, only in this aspect, and so logic dictates I listen to her. Please note, LMAO means open quote laughing my a - asterisk - asterisk off, Close Quote. Close Parentheses”
AND NOW A QUOTE
