I thought it would be FUN (all in good fun; love you peeps!) to post some of the signature phrases/sayings/words that we have noticed from our fellow vegwebbers' posts (things that we say/do a lot). I'll start (duh)!
KMK: "DO IT!"
" just sayin'.."
hesp: leaves everything in lowercase
pink: medical stuff!

i say p.s. a lot... but that might mostly be irl.
also i try to do uppercase sometimes!
Love this thread!
I also say *swoon* a lot. But mostly on the PPK boards because they have cute boys. We lack a preponderance of cute boys on vegweb. Just sayin'. The boys we have are cute, we just don't have very many. But I swoon over the ladies too.
I also say "hideous" a lot in general. And "oy." At least in real life.
I can't think of any phrases people say, but laurabs always says things really nice; carrot and heliamphora are always funny; bp is always matter-of-fact, straight-to-the-point, makes-me-think-about-the-world-in-a-different-light; HH, Cali and bookmama are always really helpful; LA and AC are friendly like they're your best girlfriends; and hespedal knows everything about nutrition and smart spending and bikes.
And capture is the picture queen!
I think secondbase packs the most funny into the fewest words/characters.
That's not everyone, of course. Too much love all at once! I'll have to come back to this later.

haha I see that you're sensitive about the lower/uppercaseness! ;) Yeah..sometimes...
I use parenthesis and ellipses (?) a lot..
VHZ tends to write longer posts and VS I think just started writing more in the forums..so I'm not sure..
gogogo
the shift key is irrelevant for many of us. ::)
(it only becomes relevent in my work and in the work of my students. if i have another paper that is like "this is important bc u need 2 demonstrate ur writin skillz" i will scream.)
Shouldn't all papers demonstrate writing skills? I HATE seeing grammatical errors in papers..
I had a professor once who was lecturing on writing papers. He was emphasizing the importance of spelling and grammar. He wrote on the board, "Pay attention to spelling and grammer"
*headdesk*
i'm fully of qualifiers: well, so, maybe, kinda, kind of, sort of...
and i waver between capitalization and none (why should the first letter be any more important than the rest? >:()<--excuse for laziness
I have been told I overuse the phrase "the mind boggles." Just checked through my posts, and they're right.
I have also been known to use the words "felicitous" and "notorious" too much. I read too much Austen.
I know that some of you have met each other 'irl'...so, were the vegwebbers that you met what you 'thought they would be?' Were their personalities the same as/different from what you were expecting? I'm curious. :)
As I was typing my last post, I realized that I like to use "So".
well, i know thisisroger, kennedy, lime green, and ummm that's it, i think and i guess they were pretty much what i was expecting...
Uhhhhhhh, I've spoken to the baypupster on the phone! :^ She sounded normal.
*blerg* <---------------- my most over used "word"

oh thank goodness.
i've met many a webers, and they have all been awesome. i think i'm a little more reserved irl for ppl who know me, but idk.
oh yeah, this is bp posting as cammers. ha ha ha :^
I want to meet some peeps! ::)
I thought this thread would totally blow up...but..oh.. :oh:
ac, i want to visit you sometime!
i want to see montana. i just want to make my way to all the states.

;D
There are so many of y'all I'd like to meet irl - maybe I should start planning vacations around where vegwebbers live ^-^
Seriously, though, if any of you plan on coming down to South Texas (Rio Grande Valley, 30 minutes from the Mexican border and 40 minutes from South Padres Island), let me know!!
I would recommend you wait until early fall though, as it gets WAY hot during the months of June, July and August :P
OK, so OFF TOPIC, but I am already thinking about what I am going to do during the summer in between my two years of teaching (not this summer, the next one). Now, I was thinking, oh, backpack through Europe, but really I should do a vegweb tour! I can make my way down the east coast, to the south, then back across the midwest, then ultimately out west! It would be awesome if gas wasn't probably gonna be $10/gal by then. But I have a goal of visiting all the states as well.
