trinityofoneI just had to explain to my boss what "*g*" means. I forwarded something to him with a note that said "And I'm coming right in to talk to you about this. *g*" because our offices are right next door and it seemed kind of silly. That was two hours ago. He just called me in to ask, "What does star gee star mean?" And then I had to explain.
What really freaks me out is: he's not that much older than I am. He lives, you know, in the world. Why does he not know this? Is it generally not known? I mean, my dad knows what "*g*" means. Although possibly because I told him. So...does BossMan live in a bubble, or am I completely divorced from reality or like a teeny-bopper net-speaker omg lolz?

I still remember emailing my father with something like, "And you're coming to get me at about 10am, right? 8-)" when he was picking me up from university at the end of one term. He emailed back saying "Did you want me at 8am or 10am?" and I couldn't work out what on earth he was on about until I actually went back and re-read the email carefully *g*.
