Ah, avoidance...

[valis2]

So much to do, but instead, I decide to do the Spellchecker meme...I shamelessly took it from lady_branwyn. You take your friendslist, plug it into Word, and show what Word thinks you should change the names to...

adamasoda Adam soda
agatha_s apathies
angelruse angelus
anneline aniline
avus avulse
bleodswean beadswoman
blumsmile clumsily
charliesmum charisma
dphearson dihedron
eloisasnape Eloisa nape
gillieweed glowed
gmth Goth
iibnf ion
khames chimes
larilee parolee
musigneus mutinous
mysduende misdeeds
sapphiresnape sapphires nape
shezan shebang
snapesforte snapshot
zakkati rackety

Most names confused it, so I omitted those. And, of course, valis2 becomes valise.

I don't know why, but "goth" gmth amused me the most.

Since I know I don't APPEAR on your friends list *harumph*, I knew I wouldn't be spellchecked. ;)

[valis2.livejournal.com]

It seems to avoid the names with more than one number on it, so you still wouldn't have gotten a funny result. :P

MS Word's spellchecker was next to useless when applied to my f-list. It kept telling me everyone's usernames were spelled wrong, but only offered proper spelling suggestions for two of them (neither of which were very inspiring or amusing).

LJ's spellchecker, however, offers lots of amusing alternatives, some of them incredibly bizarre. blackletter is "blackbirder" or "Bakelite," for example. You are "Valois" or "valors," among other things--beats the heck outta being luggage, don't

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Oh, I should totally have used LJ's spellchecker! Argh!

[blackletter]

That's it! I'm going to be "Blackbirder" from now on.

[agatha-s.livejournal.com]

So I'm apathies... Yeah... Whatever... Why should I care... :)

(I'm definitely stealing this!)

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Use LJ's spellchecker...it's much funnier!! :)

[aramintasnape.livejournal.com]

LOL! Some of those are quite amusing!

[valis2.livejournal.com]

I thought it was so cute I just had to steal it. ;)

[black-lust-z.livejournal.com]

This has nothing to do with you recent post, but I just wanted to say ‘hi’ and ‘welcome back’ as I have been a little caught up and forgot to check you LJ to see if you were back yet *gives puppy dog eyes*

Sounded like you had a memorable time, glad that you back!

Ciao *~Luv Loz, mwa!~*

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the warm welcome! I'm glad to be home...will be working on the new chapter today! (I hope)

[katazhena.livejournal.com]

I'm trying to think of some type of neck joke to come up with but can't! :P

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Heh! That would be a great fic challenge...the "nape" challenge...

[bell-witch.livejournal.com]

That was amusing. I'll give mine a try, but I haven't got a large friends list so it probably won't be too funny.

[bell-witch.livejournal.com]

I'm not putting in those with no suggestions. The ones in parenthesis are Word's suggestions. The others are the best of LiveJournal.

The LJ dictionary *is* funnier...now I'm all full of meme regret...I should have used it instead.

Hey, I'm valid! Good to know.

"Aniline is a colorless to brown oily liquid with an aromatic, pungent odor. Exposure to aniline can cause coma, convulsions, arrhythmia, cyanosis, methemoglobinemia, vertigo, headache, confusion, weakness, lethargy, anemia, anorexia, weight loss, nausea, dryness of throat, eye irritation, corneal damage, and cutaneous lesions."

How does your spell-checker know so much about the real me?

[valis2.livejournal.com]

Ha! You cause a dry throat...I store shirts & pants for a trip.
