Gmail went boom

[eruthros]

And I kind of want to write a postage stamp-style story about it.

See, when thingswithwings tried to use igoogle, it told her she could only have one interest -- corning. This suggested hacking to us, you know, maybe a little. But, being the naturally curious people we are, we looked up corning in urbandictionary.com.

This revealed that gmail is currently interested only in:

1. smoking pot
2. being in an upstate New York town
and/or
3. inserting corn cobs or kernels into its ass

And thusly:

bitter_crimson: Hahaha, all of the above!
bitter_crimson: If only we had one more definition, then it could be a postage stamp story! XD
eruthros: drugs/alcohol, object penetration (unusual), AND ... um, whatever being in an upstate NY town is.
bitter_crimson: I'll bet you could roleplay in there somehow
bitter_crimson: For being in an upstate NY town
bitter_crimson: Roleplay/AU historical!
eruthros: Totally!
eruthros: Or if it's in the Rust Belt, it could be domestic/tradesman
bitter_crimson: That could work well with the corning
bitter_crimson: It could be on a farm
eruthros: yes!
eruthros: it's totally on a farm.
eruthros: Now we just need a fourth definition.
bitter_crimson: Hmmm
eruthros: oh my god
eruthros: the fourth is totally consent play
bitter_crimson: Aha!
eruthros: it's hackers/gmail noncon!
bitter_crimson: XD XD That is so fantastic/perfect
eruthros: (thingswithwings says she also feels USED.)
bitter_crimson: Hahaha



So that is the true story of what gmail is doing right now.

:D I must concur that you speak truth.

I am really chagrined I can't remember that story. ARGH!

AHAHA WAIT! I FOUND IT! Because I thought I remembered scanning one of the other stories from the same anthology into my computer, so I looked on my hard drive and found it. Then I searched THAT title & author and found the collection it was in, and lo and behold! The corning story I read: "Corncobs," by Dominic Santi. Haha now I want to hunt it down again and re-read it. :3 I found part of it google books, but they don't have the whole thing (it's missing some pages, plus the ending). Hmmm, looks like he calls it "cornholing" rather than "corning."

And if it was later in the year, you could work in temperature play.

Hahahaha, yes, totally. Gmail was down for me too - I wish I'd known it was because of Kink Bingo.

I'd read that.
