big gay lawyers

[moominmolly]

I just got email from two people who used the abbreviation "BGL" in an offhanded way, sans explanation. One meant "big gay love" (K), and the other meant "bad grammar lawyer".

I dreamt I was driving a Mini when the bridge I was on suddenly disappeared. The water below was only chest-deep, though, so we jumped out of the car, picked it up, and set it on one of the bits of bridge that remained. This worked. I was relieved that I owned a small car and had been keeping up with the weightlifting, but I still couldn't quite heft the car all the way over my head.

I think you misunderstand; I am a proofreader at a law firm. If I had a nickel for every BGL at my firm who disobeyed the most basic laws of spelling and grammar, I wouldn't have to work as a proofreader at a law firm any more. The ones I work for tend to be of the opinion that commas and semicolons are unnecessary, especially in page-long run-on sentences.

Hah! Excellent! I didn't realize that.

Perhaps if you mated your BGLs with F's BGL, you'd get a GGL. I doubt it, though -- you'd probably get an Inappropriate Grammar Lawyer.
