| Jason: | Okay, tangent |
| Jason: | apparently my D&D DM can't stand the word "shrimping" and the meaning thereof |
| Jason: | which didn't stop us from turning "shrimp" into a Pee-wee's Playhouse style secret word, or from bringing it into conversation during the game last night |
| Heidi: | wtf is shrimping |
| Jason: | sucking on somebody's toes |
| Heidi: | OMG OMG OMG |
| Heidi: | that has a NAME? |
| Jason: | uh |
| Jason: | we are living in the era of naming everything |
| Heidi: | wow, you maybe have ruined the act for me with that name |
| Heidi: | be careful what you teach me obiwan! |
| Jason: | so Scott, another player, just gave a one-word response to the list: "Shrimping" |
| Jason: | to which I'm replying: |
| Jason: | "Hellashrimping: That's 10^27 shrimpings." |
| Heidi: | wow |
| Heidi: | the sick thing is |
| Heidi: | I am now wondering how many toes there are in the world |
| Heidi: | or for all time |
| Heidi: | and if that's even possible |
| Jason: | Well |
| Jason: | ... |
| Jason: | wait, I don't have an appropriate response to that |
| Heidi: | I realize it's just X*10 |
| Heidi: | which X = everyone ever |
| Jason: | more like X*9.3, or whatever the average is |
| Heidi: | WTF |
| Jason: | well |
| Heidi: | 9.3? |
| Jason: | missing toes, extra toes |
| Heidi: | EXTRA TOES |
| Heidi: | WHERE ARE YOU SHRIMPING |
| Jason: | I'm guessing it trends more towards missing |
| Heidi: | no way it's 9.3 |
| Jason: | 9.93 then |
| Jason: | I don't know |
| Heidi: | I mean, I'll give you a decimal place |
| Heidi: | I am *happy* you don't have that statistic |
| Heidi: | because if you did I would be, um, a little weirder out. or maybe just impressed |
| Jason: | What's giving me pause is that someone, somewhere, has this info |
| Heidi: | you know, this conversation has unintentionally spawned way too much thought for my tastes this late in the day |
