We're all stomping kittens,
Stomping kittens every day,
We're all stomping kittens
Cos we're all so very gay.
Yay!

Pass it on -- soon you'll be able to see from your friendslist who has a sense of sarcasm and who doesn't, supposedly.

If you've no idea what I'm talking about, check out my friendslist for mentions of "gay" and "kittens". Essentially, the conversation went like this.

Someone I don't know: Say you're pro-gay-rights! If you don't, you SUCK.
Someone I know: I appreciate the effort, but the implication that I have to agree with you in exactly the same way, in exactly the same medium, or I disagree entirely is offensive. Also, kittens.

Come to think of it, it's another place where being able to '#include' someone else's entry or comment in your journal would be useful: you make any response as a reply, and then anyone who hasn't seen the original but is subcribed to your journal finds it appearing on their friendslist recommended by you, but only once whether many/any people do so or not.

hm, I read it as "we are kittens, and we're stomping", but this makes me think you read it as "we are stomping *on* kittens", which is a much less fluffly image ...

I wrote it that way, but I'm happy with your way -- as I said to miss_next, it doesn't make much sense either way, and I'm happy with that :)
