What will happen if I just start writing? I remember doing this exercise in university, called “Free Writing”. We would spend a half hour in class writing whatever came to mind. This is what I paid 40k in tuition for. . .is it working? Lmfaooooo

Man, am I the only one who still uses “lmfao?” to express laughter? Ok so here’s the situation when it comes to pieces of shit who don’t know about laugh scales. Yes, there needs to be a solid system in place to make sure you know if your buddy is actually laughing, smiling, or really doesn’t give a shit but is being polite. 

On a scale from no laughter to pissing yourself and spitting out your tea, here it is:

Ahaha

AHAHA

Lol

LOL

Lmao

LMAO

Lmfao

LMFAO

LMFAOAOAOAOAOAOOOO

Notice the capitalization as we move up the laugh hierarchy. If I text good friends who know the laugh scale and they put “ahaha” that’s purely a sympathy text saying “good try.”

Back in the MSN Messenger days way before texting but after ICQ, the emoji game was key. However, a laugh scale was already flourishing at that time. It comes naturally if you’re texting a person you really know. It’s so fucking cool. So on msn, the angry emoji was used with a few friends of mine to express ‘red in the face laughter’ and trying not to make too much noise since our big ass PC desktops were in the living room and dad was reading behind us.

 So this is what came up when I decided to free write. Where do these thoughts come from? You can’t predict what memory you’ll be faced with as you go about your day. Every day is a surprise maybe not in the realm of routine, but in thought and memory. Enjoy the surprise and show respect, use laugh scales.
