...Okay, am I the /only/ one who takes "AxB" to mean interchangeable relationship (dominance not implied) and "A/B" to be specific order relationship (dominance implied)? *HEADDESK*

And where did Kiraya go? *pokes internet to give her back*

We got the first season of Numb3rs on DVD! *squee*

I am attempting to play KHI on expert again and beat Riku on the island. It IS possible...though I haven't done it yet.

Also am assembling stuff for VBS. The insanity continues! Why do I do this to myself....

Have to clean house, as Kiraya is coming for a visit on Thursday. Will likely be the last visit until Disney and things look hectic after that. X.x Well, we'll see what happens.

No, I understand AxB and A/B the same way as you do. Buuuut... Sometimes I just get lazy with that and just slap the x there.

.....how is "x" less work than "/"? o.O

Coming from the slash side of fandom for me "AxB" is a defined Seme x Uke relationship, whereas "A/B" is an interchangeable relationship. Both indications without meaning in regard of dominance. I was pretty mindboogled when I stumbled into shonen ai and yaoi. Nowadays all the pairing indications are pretty wishy-washy and not as strict as they used to be ten years or so ago.

Weird. I've always seen the opposite in the Anime side. Mind, from my perspective"x" interchangeable makes sense since Multiplication is commutative, compared to division (/) which is not.

*MATH GEEK!*

Nope. I do the same thing.

I have one word for lack of visitability: phone. Phonephonephonephone. For those times IM isn't an option, anyway.

Yeah, but I'm saving minutes this month!

I have never heard that one before! I always though they meant the same thing.

I hadn't heard that either. It would be very conveniant though, to have a differentiation like that. But in general usage, it seems to be pretty interchangeable.
