Excited, can't focus, here's a bunch of boops

[jesse_the_k]

I have ten book reviews, five movie reviews, and twelve other blog posts in the formative stage. Which means I can't work on any of them. Urgh.

So instead I learned about BOOP!

I didn't even know it was a word.

Evidently, it means to touch very lightly so as to gain the attention of another, with no hostile intent.

Lucky for my sighted readers, Reddit (the website without pity) has an entire boop subthread. Here it is sorted by popularity, and I can testify that the top ten boops are laugh-out-loud funny.

Heh, I've never thought of it as a word, but as the traditional accompanying sound-effect. I spent some time with a seven-year-old (??) this weekend, and spent a decent chunk of time booping his nose, and getting giggled at for it. Which, I can attest, is a delightful way to spend ten minutes of waiting for the grown-ups to stop talking.

THANK YOU for this. I sent it to a friend whose father was taken off life-support today. She's on a death-watch now and this was perfect.
