things i write

[rone]

I'll often abbreviate a saying by quoting two elements and adding "et cetera" to the end, such as "blind nut, squirrel, etc."  I'm pretty sure i picked this up from someone else, but i have no idea whom.  I've been doing it for at least as long as i've been on the Internet...

If I'm understanding you correctly, and it's plausible I'm not, what with the language barrier and all, I frequently utter 'handwave' in similar circumstances.

Yes, I say 'handwave'.

Yes, it is very geeky. In my defence, it is one of the few stereotypical geek traits I possess. Most of the others make me cringe and pretend I don't understand these k0mp00t0r things.
