Hi.

This is the love thread.

Do you love something?
Then this is the thread for you.

Personally, I love that I can kill hour after hour on MacNN while at "work."

Have fun!

Good beer.
Plants next to computers.

A.
Sleeping in.
Thunderstorms (real floor-shaking, window-rattling, dog-terrifying ones).
Dogs.
Films that make you forget to breathe for a time.
Peeling labels off things (beer bottles etc, but the best is the film that covers new electronic equipment).
Intelligent debate.
Come-uppances.
Empty roads.
Alone time.
The cold side of the pillow.
Learning.
Complaining.
Edit: My iMac and iPod nano which I found out are being delivered tomorrow.

Ooh, I feel all warm and fuzzy.

Albert Pujols · Oct 10, 2005, 02:42 AM

I love it when random MacNN members and just random people from "the internet" IM me and we have an hour long conversation about mostly nothing. Oh and especially when the random people are girls (hot girls I hope).

I also love boobs.

That last two are just slang words. Have the same meaning for those that use them I suppose.

'luv' just seems to be a shortened version.

I've often seen 'lurve' used to mean 'infatuation', as in "I lurve Paul McCartney" or something.

Sure they all can be used to convey the same general meanings. For example, using things wdlove would say:

"I would love to get Cody in the sack....er....um... I mean, I would love to iChat with Cody".....(thinks to himself "nice catch wdlove, no one suspects a thing!")

"I lurve Cody"

"I dream of giving Cody some sweet sweet luv"
