My only stabbing language is a hara-kiri gesture I learned from the movie hara-kiri. I'm not able to put it to use much though

All the more painful image b/c that movie has someone doing it with a wooden sword.

Let me tell you from personal experience.

On a roadtrip, nothing says, "You're expendable." like waking up in a bathtub full of ice with two gashes about a milimeter deep over your kidneys and, in the wall, in blood, but not neccessarily yours, the words, "Thanks for the Kidneys, sucker."

Nuuuu I want to sell meh kidneys! Nuuuuuuuuu don't do it.

My twin and I used to have our won lanuage when we were small tots. My mother swore that he and i were in complete communication a lot of the time, before we learned to speak.

I saw this too in my own twins.

This is getting off topic but I will ask quickly,

If I need a quick buck and want to sell a kidney, does it matter which one I sell off?

Like, are right kidneys usually better quality and worth more than the left kidneys?

If you need a quick buck and need to sell a kidney, prepare to wake up all over the world, one piece at a time.

Seriously. I freak out about being O Pos for that reason.

(No, I don't believe left or right makes a difference.)

Pheh.

We O Pos are a dime a dozen.

Be glad we're not O Neg...

Hey, they're already working on a way to turn ABO compatability into just plain O. If they ever figure out a way to remove the +/-, we're all screwed. I like my Kidneys.

I have several made up words I use in scrabble:

mootenooga
kwjybo (from Bart Simpson)
darlingest


do these count?

I do believe darlingest is a word.

The book 'Regina's Song' by David Eddings has a shared private language as a key part of the story. If it wasn't for that I'd have never heard of the concept before.

MMhhhmm. Thanks for the return of topic, (and smoothly, I might add). My best friend and I had a shared written language we used at school... the irony is, we are both taking french lessons now, that we might annoy my other roommate!

Using Rosetta Stone software, I had a rudimentary vocabulary of about 30-40 words in about 30 minutes! I hope to be speaking rudimentary french in about a month!

I will be looking into italian and probably an asian dialect as well. Go Rosetta!
