The Literal Fad

My real entry is right here, but I just wanted to share this here inspirational chat I had with Andria this morning.
Background: It all started when we stumbled upon the topic of "slang" ...
Andria: haha.. what a dumb phrase that is. "Slay me"
Meany: I know, but it's so PERFECT!
Meany: Better than "you, um, make me ... laugh ... sometimes."
Andria: yeah, no shit.
Meany: We should take all slang phrases, and translate them literally, and use them that way.
Andria: Oh my god. People would have no fucking clue. Let's do it.
Meany: Like, instead of "that's so cool" it would be, "that's so below temperate."
Andria: Instead of
Andria: oh dammit
Andria: I was going to make a joke about "that's the bomb", but I don't know the literal definition of bomb. "wow, that's an explosive nuclear device."
Meany: Yeah!!
Meany: "You are awesome" = "You fill me with fear and dread"
Andria: Oh, man... I am so doing that.
Meany: Yay! Me too.
Meany: I'll tell my brother, too, he'll be so down with it.
Meany: I mean ...
Meany: He'll be so lower than average with it.
Andria: Dude. Sugary. We'll insert our foot into someone's buttocks all over the place with this.
Meany: Like someone who commits incest with maternal figures!
Andria: What?!
Meany: A motherfucker, dude!
Andria: I thought "word to your mother" but I can't
Andria: Oh, goddammit. I am so LAME
[edit: What Andria meant to say was, "I am so unable to walk."]
Meany: HAHAHAHAHA
Andria: That's so obvious now that I look at it.
Meany: So I really want to post this retarded -- mentally handicapped -- conversation and share the happiness
Meany: We could TOTALLY start a new CRAZE
Andria: Dude, do it. I post my chats all the time.
Andria: Hells yeah we could.
Meany: You should do it, too, because some people read you who don't read me ... we'll start by taking over DiaryLand and Blogger, and work our way out!
Meany: We sit on the throne!
Andria: YESSSS!!!
So there you have it, my dear friends -- we are starting a New Craze, and you shall help us. And together we shall sit on the throne.
Goodwill on the outside!
