Lightling

Lightling is the name of a character formed by photographing traffic lights, headlights, street lights, neon lights, or other lights, in the rain and usually night. They appear sometimes tiny, unformed, deformed or otherwise different that what they actually were. These lights often are anthropomorphic, seeming to take on facial expressions, interpreted differently by viewers, but fun and interesting. Unless the photographer what the Lightlings really are, people are not likely to know.
The photographer was taking Raintings of many kinds of lights through her rain-covered windshield. When she looked closely at some of them, many of the lights appeared to have human expressions. It was fun to see them and to know what they were in real life. She saw anger, smiles, doubt, all manner of expressions. One of her images had a lot of them gathered under a tree. Whether they were a new type of cartoon character or not, she felt they needed a name, hence Lightling.

felony cute

Felony Cute is an expression I coined meaning so unbearably and overwhelmingly cute that it should be a crime for a dog or cat to have that much power over us. I mean, you know, making us get a goofy grin on our face, get weak in the knees, and talk baby talk.
The little Golden Retriever puppy was not just cute; I mean after all, they all are. He was *felony cute* making me have a big goofy grin, weakening my knees, and forcing a stream of baby talk from my mouth. It should be a serious crime, perhaps even a felony, for a cute puppy to render me helpless.
