Susie has become hyper-popular.

Verity coined a new word using Coino, the #1 word coiner on VisageMate:

'Smellsome'

'Noisome' usually means something that smells terrible, so shouldn't 'smellsome' suggest a really dismal noise? 'Your drill is most smellsome, Mr Dentist!'

Nobody liked this.

12 people thought Verity was being too clever by half.

Mike commented: I rather like the sound of a dentist's drill, actually. Sweet.

Verity commented: Yes, Mike, but then you are in fact a dentist.

Jacquie found a lonely black sheep on her farm, all on its own. Oh no!

There a lots of sheep and cows and pigs and goats on Jacquie's cute farm in Farmington. Then the little black sheep came wandering along. My! Is the little black sheep cute! But none of the other sheep will talk to it, because it's black and they are white. Aren't they meanies! Would you like to adopt the cute little black sheep?

Katsumi commented: Awwww! Its soooooh cute! It’s the. Cutest. Sheep. Evvahhhh! lol!

Verity commented: What are you on about Jacquie? You haven't got a farm. You haven't got any sheep.

Jacquie commented: @Verity, you don't understand.

Verity commented: You live in a house in Leyton. You never go outside London. You hate the countryside.

Jacquie commented: You don't understand.

Verity commented: True.

Actually, I believe metal is one of the five "elements" in Tao, so that quiz answer wasn't completely without precedent. Still stupid, of course.

If Verity were an element, she'd be amusing-and-trenchant-commentary-on-the-foolishness-around-us.

Er, -ium.
