A conversation I had IRL recently.

Rashaka: "...blah blah depends if they're really into the ho yay...."
ShakaDad: "What's ho yay?"
Rashaka: ..."Um..." *momentarily stumped as to how to explain* "Eh...Homosexuality Yay!"
ShakaDad: "Oh. Okay. That must be some kind of generational slang, never heard it before."
Rashaka: "Um, don't worry. Most people probably haven't heard it."
This is what happens when you allow fandom to bleed into your normal habits; it pops out at unexpected moments. I wish I could remember what prompted the tangent in the first place, but it's already slipped my mind. Probably something to do with movies.
