I was the big Stephen King fan when Davin and I met, but he's pretty much been dragged along on all the adventures since the late 80s and learned to love it. Sometimes I forget how much SK plays in our personal language (around with a bunch of other stuff, including LOTR, Star Trek, etc.) but then, like today, I get a reminder.
This morning, he forwarded an email about his company picnic to me, so I could put the date on the calendar. I got the entire text of the original email, and above it all he added was, "M-O-O-N, that spells picnic!"
Does anyone do goofy stuff like this in their family?
Sometimes when my dad was being extra bossy ( but in a loving dad way, I love you pops) I would say "MY LIFE FOR YOU", and as he was the one that motivated and fueled my intrest in The Stand, he always seemed to get a kick out of it. Then he always went on to say " Now if you burn anything down, it will not be praise you recieve. Cool topic by the way...
The Calla slang really stuck on me for a long time. I'd wish everyone Long Days and Pleasant Nights and demanded that they would wish me Twice as Many...

I use M-O-O-N that spells _____ all the time, yet, none of my friends are fans of Sai King, so they have no clue what I'm talking about. However, they are amused by it.
Yeah now I say "My Laws" all the time, but everyone just thinks I'm a weirdo or something . Also, after Duma Key I've been talking more spanglish than before.
i once came across 'm-o-o-n that spells........................' on the urban dictionary of slang online. apparently it's a popular thing for some people to say?
