Dromendief Group: Administrator Posts: 5,873 Member No.: 3 Joined: 16-May 04	Oh yes, I don't know that one either. Giggles is probably it, although I used to think it was something like 'Gee!' :D -------------------- If the rain has to separate from itself does it say 'pick out your cloud'?

cupboardy Group: Members Posts: 1,441 Member No.: 24 Joined: 26-May 04	Some people view stuff online at work - so "worksafe" means that there are no hardcore porn images in that link that will get someone in trouble. Something like a picture of two naked men having sex is NOT worksafe. Worksafe=safe to view while at work. Hope that helps. --------------------

I may even have typed g to indicate that I'm grinning at something. :blink: I suppose it's not that far from giggling but it changes the meaning slightly, from ironic to amused. -------------------- greg-house greg-house My Live Journal
