Pop quiz

How many other people get the joke going on here:



I'm just curious! I think I figured it out about two or three panels in.

I may try making a post in a similar fashion just for fun and the joy of thinking hard. It is difficult.

Yep. The first panel gives it away, I think.

I am in on it!

I couldn't remember what "orthographic symbol" meant, although I had a vague idea. The rest gave it away, of course.

When I went to hotlink the image, I laughed when I noticed the title: "eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee."

It is a difficult thing to do. I was hoping to craft my first dispatch similarly, but I couldn't think of how to do it.

I also think it's a bit difficult. A book full of synonyms for words is handy, but I don't own such a book. I could look using my computing box, but it's fun to try without.

(My roommate just pointed out that I could have used the word "laptop" instead of "computing box." I couldn't think of a word for "internet" that didn't have an "e"!)

COMPUTING BOX

XD

Such a book would add a lot, but I also think that avoiding my computing box's aid is fun! I am in my living room with a trio of fuzzbutts right now; such a distraction!

I am thankful that "rats" do not have the orthographic symbol that us two try to avoid. I didn't think of that conundrum.

A trio?! That is a handful of fuzzbutts. MUCH distraction.

My laundry is washing right now. It was in big amounts, both dirty and non. Non-dirty laundry is hanging and put away, finally, yay!

Damn, this is hard, but fun.

Ja, I am babysitting two fuzzbutts for my sibling, who is out of town visiting his girl Lindsay. My baby plays with his cousins by jumping, running, biting and occasionally laughing!

I should do laundry, too. I am taking off to visit Nikki in only 7 days! But dirty laundry has to wash first, and non-dirty laundry put in a bag. I did a handful of tasks on my list today, and also had lunch with my mom, sibling, and husband.

I had fun but I am looking forward to taking off for my vacation! I can't wait to visit Boston and Rockport and Nikki and Nikki's family!

This is fun. Thank you for playing along! :D

I'm happy if I do things almost right, like this.

If you haven't already, pick up Ella Minnow Pea. You'll love it.

Look up the meaning of "orthographic symbol"?

Or read the other comments to my post, I think they give it away.
