I wondered if anyone would notice that. It was the word that most reflected how I felt about all of it. It just happens to be a bit close to home on spelling. Then I though, ‘eh, it’s kind of funny’ so I went with it. 🙂

And thanks for the instruction on formatting spoilers. Some things just have to be spelled out for me. There was exactly 1 computer in my highschool in 76 the year before I graduated. Few were allowed to even be in the same room with it. I took a couple of computer classes in my mid-forties, but things change quickly. I, sadly don’t.

It’s talking about toots and coots.

Has anyone ever seen the Saturday Night Live bits with Colleen? The Xmas one is my favorite. I’ve never heard so many slang names for butts and vaginas. The poor woman loses her pants in every version.

“Grassy knoll and gassy hole” is my favorite. I’ve used that in real life before. (Among people I know of course.)

I’ve watched it about five times and I laugh as hard every time.
