And another thing:

thunderclap8 uses language in a way I do that I blame squarely on Strongbad:

11:37pm: connecticut’d!
12:38pm: saw our first road sign for nyc. shortly after, traffic is stopped. of course.
1:03pm: new jersey’d

I love the verbing of nouns – it’s one of my favorite parts of contemporary American English. Just last night, someone used my name as a verb to imply that they almost screwed up their round of Killer Bunnies as badly as I would, and it was awesomesauce to me.

However, with Teen Girl Squad, this was taken to The Next Level. Objects could be Arrow’d! with gusto!

Despite my fabulous Homestar Halloweens, I have not been to HSR in well over a year; yet its lessons live on in me.

And, clearly, in Thunderclap. :D

(Unless he made it up himself. Don’t make this weird, buddy.)

  1. haha no, it is indeed via strongbad that I learned to verb with ‘d.

    Plus it’s rather practical when posting via text message! Which would you rather spend the time to type out on a phone: We entered New Jersey, or New Jersey’d!
