The Rage of Achilles in Your Pants

The sister asks: "Is The Iliad supposed to be, y'know, sideways'd?"

I am meant to interpret: "I am writing a paper in MLA style, and I need to know whether the title of an epic poem should be italicized."

The answer is yes, it is sideways'd.

Did a little bit of your soul die or did you just laugh and laugh and laugh at her?

Haha, first one and then the other. Then I was impressed that you were able to decipher it.

I really just laughed. I hear so much stupider day in and day out that this was just funny.

Hopefully she is young and has time to learn.

She's not THAT young, though hopefully she's still working on making sure her brain catches up to her mouth. ;o)

Bwahahaha, love it. I'm remembering that one for future use, somewhere and somehow.

This is so me and my sister! We have trouble verbalizing our thoughts quickly, so we've developed this weird shorthand/ESP to communicate. This, of course, does not help us communicate with anyone else in the real world, LOL!
