Let's play: word associaton

greenspun.com : LUSENET : FRL friends : One Thread

Maybe it will liven things up a bit. :-)

For those who don't know what that is, I post a word and you respond with the first word that comes to your mind.

Well, the first CLEAN word. *wink

Use the original word in case 2 people post at the same time.

I'll start and then respond to show you what I mean:

Apologies to you all. Redneck and I kind of got into a little tussle over the chair in front of the computer for awhile there. He's so hard-headed. Okay, okay, maybe I am too. We've always done stuff like this, and every once in awhile I look around and think "what a kid thing for me (or him) to do!" Old habits die hard. The guy pushes my buttons, but I've got to learn to control it. Breathe. Breathe. Okay.
