I've just been looking at an earlier post of mine and realized that I said a story of someone's, having pushed some particular buttons of mine, "got me SO hard..." Arrgh. Didn't even realize that some might not have read that as "got TO me so hard," the way I intended to mean it. Really, when I'm TRYING to be dirty, hopefully I won't make up anatomy I don't have. Double arrgh.

i figured you were either speaking metaphorically, or having a brief moment of gender confusion...

No, just a mini-stroke, obviously.

Oh, la-la!

AHA! This is simply more proof that YOU are actually the 63-year-old male teacher who stalks kids in IRC. I *knew* it!

Yes, it's so, you've found me out, I admit it! Oh, well, only 2 years until retirement with pension, and then I can stalk the kiddies full time...

(YES, Special Agents of the FBI, I'm kidding!)

LOL. Like so many others, I figured you'd just been slashed out and were forgetting you were actually female. Or rather that you were just used to using "hard" as a synonym for "aroused." *g*

I usually get all TMI-y and say "wet." Naw, that was just an odd construction that sounded so COMPLETELY wrong!

Back in the day (ie, TXF fandom), we used to talk about getting a CB -- "clit boner".

Yeah, that's totally where I thought that comment was coming from. I didn't even think twice about it. Except to think-- women say that? Hell, that's cool. ::mentally deposits into vocabulary:: Look what you've done!

But just think of how you'll feel when the OED is republished in 2010, and there's an alternate vernacular use of "hard."

I think I can remember when that would have made me say, "Ew, too graphic." Ah, those simpler, innocent times...

I thought you were being clever, appropriating male speech and such. That may be just because it is something that I occasionally like to do.

A case study without a specific point: Once I was walking toward a door with a female friend. When I reached the door first, I opened it for her and said, "Ladies first." I had meant it as a sort of a witty commmentary on gender roles, but my sweet girlfriend took it as self deprecation. She lectured me on how she considered me to be a lady and I was just as deserving of being treated like a lady as any other women, etc. After this strange (to me) reaction, I tried it on other friends. Sometimes they would laught (hooray!), but they would also feel I was trying to slight myself. Of course, that was not my intent.

Actually, the thing you were trying to write ("got TO me so hard") sounds odd to my ears. "Got to me so bad" or "got me so bad" sounds normal (if ungrammatical). If you had written "got to me so hard," I might have read it as "got me SO hard..." anyway, just because my mind would try to make sense of it that way.

That phrase seemed utterly innocent to me until you mentioned it, and now it's all out of context and... Suuuuuure you weren't trying to be dirty. Riiiiiiight. ;) I am SO using CB.

See, it wasn't just me! You got what I meant! *sighs the "not just me" sigh*

Well, of course, now i won't be able to see that phrase without thinking pervy thoughts. Alas, how you have corrupted me. HA!
