Yes. No. Mmm. Err. (Incidentally, I remember reading about some author - name slips my mind, bleh - who was anxious to find out how his novel had sold, and sent a message to his publisher. The resultant conversation is a model of succinctness: Author's telegram: ? Publisher's reply: ! Nuff said, eh? ) Oh yes. :)

Though being the garrulous fler that I am, I tend to add at least one letter and go with Y-E-S, or worse, M-O-R-E-P-L-E-A-S-E. Words. What would we ever do without them? Less pain, maybe --- but oh so much less fun also. Good point. Though being the garrulous fler that I am, I tend to add at least one letter and go with Y-E-S, or worse, M-O-R-E-P-L-E-A-S-E.

Words. What would we ever do without them? Less pain, maybe — but oh so much less fun also.

We string together words and phrases out of the murk, hoping it'll convey the meaning we attach to it. Like Michael Pollan said about the rose twigs he bought and planted, they look too fragile to have such weighty historical loads of class, wars, and distinctions attached to them. I think words are the same way. There's almost too much power to be conveyed in a simple N-O. *big hugs back* Sometimes language is a bowl of alphabet soup, innit?
