k

Random question: when you get a response text that's a bare "K", do you find that neutral or faintly negative? (Or positive?) A few people I text with seem to treat it as at least neutral, but for some reason when not followed by a "!" I tend to see it as disapproving somehow.

I think I just need to recalibrate my own reading, but I was wondering how it was for other folk.

Nice comic version debunking the "millions for spilling hot mcdonalds coffee on yourself" lawsuit urban legend
It's not that often that I hear a song and know it's gonna hit my 5 star list. This whole Mark Ronson "Uptown" thing of funk combined with Mystikal's Pigmeat Markham-like roar... terrific.
