2long's suggested supplement to STL's definition of "fog"<p>"Fog-latin": A language, spoken by WSs. A derivative of the WS's native tongue, but scrambled so as to be completely unintelligible by otherwise intelligent BSs (e.g., "Oolongtay's uggestedsay upplementsay ootay TLSay's effinitionday uhfay "oggfay" - Say what?), or the rest of the known universe in general (including the aliens that taught the dialect to the WS). Not quite gibberish, this variant of the WS' native tongue is all the more insidious than gibberish because it causes the BS to burn thousands of calories of gray matter/day trying to fathom the unfathomable (the gray matter itself becomes replaced by a gray fog of sorts). It shouldn't be perpetrated on a dog.<p>uckfay atthay!

I remember a couple that I never posted ....<p>H: "Don't you want me to be happy?"<p>and ....<p>H: "We really shouldn't just settle, haven't you ever imagined meeting someone that just knocks your socks off?"<p>and ohhh yeah, this one too ....<p>Me: "Do you love her?"<p>H: "Probably .... at least part of me does."<p>Me <thinking>: "I certainly don't need 3 guesses what "part" of you you're talking about"<p> [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif" border="0[/img]<p>[ May 24, 2002: Message edited by: Resilient ]</p>

This from the happiest two years of our lives, then the A, WHsays"we should never have gotten married in the first, we married way too fast"
AS the OW is sitting next to me on my couch, (I had suspicions but wasn't sure)my H across from both of us, as she was spending the night in the guest room, we are watching tv, she decides she is hot, and removes the top of her housecoat to reveal her see through nightie, I was shocked and could say nothing! (very small boobs I must say) and when I mentioned this to the WH the next day,he says, "I didn't notice"!
How's that? Kinda duhhhhhhh I think! I must have been in a fog myself to allow that.
I'm sure I have lots more to share when I rememer them, oh ya, once he met the one he's with now, and tried to tell me he is "really in love"...
"It was just a happening" There's some cool words for you!

A couple of more come to mind...<p>WW: I hope you find someone who enchants you someday.<p>WW: Are you sure I can't have both of you? [she was saying it in a joking way - I wasn't laughing to say the least.]<p>WW: He's not better than you, just different.<p>WW: I just need 10 years - no, maybe only one - to get this out of my system. [hmm, she's coming up on that mark soon - self-fulfilling prophesy in the works??]<p>WW: I know I could be happy with you - I really do. I just don't know if I want to spend the rest of my life with you.

This one isn't that funny to me at the moment, because I haven't come up with a good comeback (and maybe part of me is thinking she's right [img]images/icons/frown.gif" border="0[/img] )<p>Me: "OM has robbed me and our family of a part of you for the past 11 years!"<p>WW: "Nobody can take someone away from you."<p>It's still a fog statement, but I just don't have the snappy answer to it yet.

WAT:<p>I LIKE that one. Gonna use it, doncha know.<p>When I was a kid, I got a copy of a saying and hung it on my bedroom wall, that would make good fog-latin if foggy-brained people were actually capable of sentient thought:<p>"I know you believe you understood what you think I said. However, I'm not sure that you realize that what I think you heard is not what I meant."

Note that WS's typically leave on their desk:<p>I have gone out to look for myself. If I should come back while I am gone, please hold me here until I return.<p> [img]images/icons/tongue.gif" border="0[/img]<p>[ May 24, 2002: Message edited by: Faith1 ]</p>

I'm sure we've all heard this one (maybe it's been posted already?):<p>WW: I didn't do this to hurt you.<p>Me (inwardly): Oh, THANK YOU. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH FOR CARING THIS MUCH FOR ME!! (I actually DID think that as a response).<p>On another occasion, after my "Long Walk" in the high desert in late February (a really STUPID long walk), I got this message on my cell phone when we got back home (W had called after trying to find me):<p>WW: "Okay, where the f*** are you, @$$hole!?"<p>Me: (I got the message after we'd gotten home, and said this to her in reply): "I love you too, b****." She actually thought it was funny.<p>I still don't.

Here is a reply I like, it's from a silly movie called "The Sandlot" but it's good for any fog like statement.<p>"If you were thinking you wouldn't have thought that."

2Long,<p>W wrote the very same thing to me in the note she wrote when she left:<p>"You know I still love you and the last thing I ever meant to do was hurt you"<p>Yeah, as if packing up the kids and moving 200 miles away while I was at work, with no warning is the nice thing to do [img]images/icons/shocked.gif" border="0[/img]
