An On-line Conversation.

For those out there with no baby siblings and those without elder siblings, here is a small sample of what it's like, via on-line communication. Bear in mind that the philosphic question posed at the begining was not direct at yours truly, and yet I felt it necessary to add my two cents worth...

From Broken, the Live Journal of Dead Robin

Dead Robin: Did you know that thesaurus isn't in the thesaurus? what if you bought one to look up what it is?

Me: Of course thesaurus isn't in a thesaurus. There's only one word that means thesaurus. Do you even know what a thesaurus is for?

DR: they have "related words" as well, you know, such as lexicon or somethin.

Me: A lexicon is a dictionary!! It says so in the dictionary and thesaurus! Goof.

Sad, innit?
