Nine, you have just earned your daily +1! haha ^_^ Kaliko, you know that's kind of how I think about phone calls, too, especially since I know that I can get really "into" a voice, even if the guy behind it isn't so great. I mean, I don't get so into it so as to make a bad decision, but voices really affect me, and letting someone into my head/heart through my ears while, like you said, I'm snuggling up on the couch and going into comfy-zone -- that does seem fairly intimate. Here are some peeves I picked up at the pet shoppe -- Text speak -- l8rz and "words" like that don't work for me, even in text messages. Why would I write them to someone I was trying to give some idea of "who I am" to? Who am I -- a cell phone. One-liner messages -- actually, I got a message the other day that was just "h" -- I'm not even kidding. Was there not enough time in the spam fest to write "hi"? I understand that it's such a long and difficult word, but really... taking the time shows you care. =p I don't mind slang, though -- I mean every other word out of my mouth (fingers I guess?) is "dunno" or "chicks" or "dudes." =p "Dunno" is a really bad habit, I admit. I had a bad habit of not capitalizing anything, either, but I'm correcting that. One that I learned last night -- shutting the lights off in a dungeon space without telling/asking/warning anyone. I mean wow....... WOW. And moreso, the sense of entitlement that allows for that kind of thing. =p "myyyyyyyyyyyy activity is so freaking important right now!!" (As an addendum to my "I admit" post, I further admit that I adore the word "copypasta." Such a wonderful visual descriptor. =p and in response to this, I hate when a message makes reference to a photo I don't even have, or a statement that's not even in my profile. That's real nice. =p)
