Pretty Please with Sugar on Top and a Cherry

I have a small request to make of all you lovelies.

A number of people have been posting lately about the whole word verification thing. No, I am not going to talk about that.

I, for one, don't mind the WV. I find it quite funny and am one of those people that makes up definitions for them. Some of which I will share for you in a minute.

But please, please, please with sugar on top change the way your comment boxes pop up. There are some of you that I dearly, dearly love and I will not avoid your blog if you don't change this, but it would make my visit even more enjoyable.

The thing to which I am referring is the dreaded reloading page.

You know, when you leave a comment, hit post and then have to wait for it to reload before you can put in the VW and then have to hit post again and then wait for it to reload so you can click on the follow up e-mail button. Please, my lovely, lovely blogger friends. This is my single biggest pet peeve when it comes to your blogs.

If you don't know how to change it I will even give you step by step instructions here :)

  1. Click on Customize at the top of your page (you can also get to this through your dashboard I believe)
  2. Click the Settings Tab
  3. Click the Comments Tab
  4. Change Comment Form Placement from embed to pop up (like mine) or full page. (personally I like pop up better, because I can refer to the original post while commenting)
  5. Hit Save Settings at the bottom.
That's it! It's really easy and I will love you forever and ever. Promise.

Okay, now for some of my personal VW definitions:

tromphoo - trombone cleaner

baticonf - a conference for Batman fans

sledepo - a store for toboggans

tablephi - where a sorority eats

Mothyte - a faithful worshiper of Mothra

bomist - the fine dust left after an explosion

gratest - the best way to shred cheese

tridoid - the three fold ruling council of the robots

bervabor - someone that only eats bear meat

mindamp - used to make one's thoughts louder

AuthAway - a writer's retreat - and no stealing this one - I'm totally copywriting it!

How about you? Any fun words you've invented? How about leaving me a comment and making one up :D
