                  wow. i guess that means if you start typing a poem i can plagiarize it before you post it. heheh. if i magically become a great writer overnight, you'll know you can blame our in-sync fingers. and your awesome greatness.

                    omggg (oh my good golly gosh) that'd be SO FREAKY!
                    but i think i'd be the one plagiarizing The Great Lucy. seriously.
                    your greatness eats my greatness. (i was originally going to type one of those math problemmy things, like "15>2" but then i thought of that alligator and the two chickens and yeah.)

                      what two chickens and alligator? ohmigosh do telll!!!
                      and if you plagiarized me i would slap you.
                      not because it's like a bad thing to do, but because then we wouldn't have your greatness, we would just have double my suckiness. that would be horrible. two of me.

                        well when they taught us that greater-than, less-than shabang, they said that this guy (>) or (<) was an alligator mouth. you just draw teeth in there. and the alligator wants to eat the bigger chicken (numbers are chickens) so he points his mouth towards the bigger chicken/number.
                        so "15>2" is like the alligator eating a 15lb chicken instead of the 2lb chicken.

                          poor chickens. we never had chickens. just alligators eating numbers. nobody ever thought to ask why an alligator would eat numbers.

                            hahaha. yeah, numbers don't look to yummy. but i don't think alligators eat chickens, either. if they're going to say that numbers are something else, couldn't they make it something that an alligator would eat?
                            unless alligators DO eat chickens. hm.

                              they should make it something like... fishes. or something.
                              my spell check didn't underline fishes.
                              i probably added it to the dictionary*.

                              *dictionary meaning on my computer. the little 'add to dictionary' button. i can add asldkfjlorituaslkfjalskdfjlirut to the dictionary if i want. right-click, add to dictionary, boom. then my spell check won't underline it.

                                fishes seem much more logical than chickens.
                                yeah, it's not underlining fishes for me either. but i add all kinds of random words to the dictionary. it makes me feel powerful, MWAHAHAHA!

                                        lol, yeah, the contest would be over and we'd all be grown-up and living somewhere else but still continuing the same conversation.
                                        really, that'd be amazing. O.O

                                                and blow-dry my hair or else it will be insanity. INSANITY i tell you!
                                                and i never really ate dinner but i had a "brunch" that lasted like an hour at an all-you-can-eat-buffet and i had sooooo much. first i had a salad, then i had breakfast stuff, then i had lunch stuff, then i had desert. i felt like a fatty.

                                                so. homework. now.

                                                    aaaaagh, I KNOW. school is taking over our lives. it's unfair.
                                                    it should be banned.
                                                    if you think about it, school wouldn't be that bad at all if you didn't have to do it at home, too.
