I think it's really a measure of my familial life that conversations like this actually happen to me.

MOM: And then I found out that you killed me!
MEL: Am I never going to live that down?
MOM: No. Because you killed me!
MEL: I thought we were past this! I thought we were friends!
MOM: Murderer.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure you don't even want to ask.

In other news! While Stumbling across the internets, I came across this wikipedia entry which made me giggle loudly and flail my arms about like a lunatic.

Mamihlapinatapai (sometimes spelled mamihlapinatapei) is a word from the Yaghan language of Tierra del Fuego, listed in The Guinness Book of World Records as the "most succinct word", and is considered one of the hardest words to translate. It describes a look shared by two people with each wishing that the other will initiate something that both desire but which neither one wants to start.

Ahaaaaahahahah!! :D

So John and Rodney have their very own word, eh? ;)

[unamaga.livejournal.com]

It's kind of really beautiful.

[kashmir1.livejournal.com]

As is their love.

Is it dream related? My sister didn't talk to me for four days after she had a dream in which I killed the family and all of her friends.

Also! I love the things you can find on the internets. That is SO a word to describe the McSheep, except Rodney doesn't believe in the softer sciences and probably doesn't know it. *sigh*

My mom's into a bunch of new-age stuff and sometimes goes for readings - a few weeks ago she went for a "Past Life Regression" and learned that apparently I poisoned her. Woops? :|

[walkawayslowly.livejournal.com]

Is it wildly inappropriate if I laugh at that? Yes? No? Also, I think it ranks worse than me killing my sister's friends in her dreams.

[unamaga.livejournal.com]

Feel free to laugh! I kind of did. A lot.

Apparently I slapped her twice, too. Because she refused to pardon my husband or something and he was executed.

PAST LIVES ARE SO FUN.

[walkawayslowly.livejournal.com]

Okay! Because I totally did. :)

They are fun! And you were apparently kind of... mean in yours. I mean, seriously.

I wish that were an easier word to pronounce because it's so awesome:)

I actually had a plotbunny re: that word but I didn't write it. Except it wasn't Sheppard/McKay and it's the perfect word for them!

That word -so prefect for John and Rodney, it practically begs for it's own community.

Gosh, in my family we only slaughter each other with scrabble scores...:)

My mom is catching up after I sang SGA's praises and she just got to Ronon's introduction AND SHE LIKES HIM TOO. My mom and I like the same dude.

IT'S WEIRD AND AWESOME.

...now THAT is a fun word


*cookies*

[raiining.livejournal.com]

That word can inspire a whole SAGA of McShep stories!! :D:D:D

[samantha-wester.livejournal.com]

MY GOD. I didn't realize there was a word for that.

It would be completely awesome if I could pronounce it correctly and use it in front of someone. Har har.
