From: Marianne McCann Inigo Montoya think that word dun mean what you tink it means.  Inconceivable!  From: Raymond Figtree Rezzinating (verb): biding time while waiting for objects to appear around you. Story of my Second Life! From: someone Upgrate (noun): person who does not allow a few days for LL to work out the bugs after a new version is released. Thank you Ray, this is my new favorite word.  |

Meh, I laughed at my post, even if I used Grey Goo incorrectly I got called a "Thesbian" once while RPing. Didn't respond in world but I had to giggle at that one. |

From: Pixieplumb Flanagan YES!! I find myself looking at real life objects and thinking, hmmm, I wonder if that's mod and transfer!! Also this morning I woke up wanting to wear some jeans I own. Only problem is I have them in SL, not RL!! Gonna have to get the sewing machine out I think!! Off topic I know, but do we all do this? I look at real life buildings and such and wonder how many prims it uses or I see a build in RL and think, oh god they used too many prims on that, could have done it with so much less... just think if RL did concern themselves with how much resources they use, be it lumber or cement etc... how much of those resources would be saved. (staying within guidelines of course)

Oh man, glandbarons almost made me fall out of my chair! Someone needs to compile all of these into a book/notecard in-world. Here's one I came up with:
Primtiques - old prim based builds of extreme detail before the era of sculpties.
