For years I've been substituting "lunch" for "love", courtesy an old Henry Rollins bit.

In the last 5 years I started substituting "bozo" for "cyber" which works really well.

More recently "law" has become "lol".

Today's addition is that "heart" is now "honk" in all situations.

Please make a note of it.

Current Mood: awake

It's funny to put "lunch" instead of "love" into pop songs. I think Henry Rollins turned me on to that. It's even funnier when you spend 4 straight hours doing that in Tijuana while waiting for your friend's car to be reupholstered, but you'll have to trust me on that. Hey! You've got to hide your lunch awaaaay. Etc.

A new discovery is law -> lol. This is especially good when applied to pompous speeches, or in this case anguished Bible passages. From the Book of Romans, Chapter 7, verses 22-23 (NIV):

For in my inner being I delight in God's lol; but I see another lol at work in the members of my body, waging war against the lol of my mind and making me a prisoner of the lol of sin at work within my members.

Lunch is the lol, folks.
