Person A emits verbal tones in the form of sentences while Person B utilizes sense of hearing to transmit exact words to brain which in turn, re-creates the sentence to fit their own agenda and re-emits into a new and improved, yet rarely accurate, statement.

Get the communication mug.#1. A tool used, often in the form of an emoticon or acronym, that is relied upon to make a point or convey an emotion that the writer or speaker cannot do with their limited vocabulary.
#2: The use of acronyms like BRB, ROFL, OMG and WTF in spoken conversation as opposed to actually laughing, showing disbelief etc.
#3: A word, phrase or acronym that is so ingrained in someone's head, that they use without thinking if it's appropriate or even makes any sense at all.

Example of #1: She uses xD as a communication crutch because she isn't actually funny enough to make me laugh with only her words. She has to add that otherwise we wouldn't know it was a joke.
Example of #2: A person who uses 'ROFL' when speaking to them instead of actually laughing. This is a communication crutch because they either don't get the joke, don't know how to laugh or are just condescending assholes.
Example of #3: "I'm pretty sad, my grandma just died"
"That sucks lol"
"Why are you laughing about my grandma dying?"
"Sorry about that lol"
No matter what you say, this person has the communication crutch 'lol' and will automatically type it in every response.

Get the Cross-Communicate mug.Charter Communications Marketing Plan:
1. Find a former-hick community, say, Sparks, Nevada that is rapidly growing technologically.
2. Buy up all the rights to the cable lines within the new housing complexes in construction, and make those cable lines available only to Charter only.
3. When new owners of a home move in, bombard their mailbox with faster internet service ads.
4. Provide the service, seemingly superior in speed and reliability compared to their nonexistent competitors at first, but then after the first week, totally flips out, and has long downtimes and ignorant customer support reps that love to talk back against angry customers.
5. When customer opts out of the service, remind them that they need to pay a $200+ separation fee because their first month is not up, and not even the first 2 years of their contract.
6. When customer REALLY WANTS OUT, then remind him or her that their ass still belongs to Charter, and theres no other alternative except a slower and still just as unreliable ClearWire Wi-Fi broadband in the neighborhood.
7. When customer threatens to sue, Charter pays electric company to cut off all power, except for a few D-Batteries to power a portable TV connected to a portable VHS player, reminding them that they can stop this by switching back.
8. Don't provide them any service anyways, and bill them $4000 a month in retaliation for their lifetimes. Also armed guards patrol the outside of their doors at all times, with rottweilers bred for the taste of human flesh drooling on the windows.

Meanwhile, Girl C has a crush on Boy A, and keeps overtly flirting with him. After some time, Girl B starts telling Girl A that Boy A likes two other people at the same time. Girl B also tells Boy A that Girl A is considering breaking up with him, as well as spreading rumors that Boy B is going out with Girl C. Some time later, they break up or rather, Girl B broke them up (but later it is found out that they still loved each other when they broke up). Girl C keeps being clingy with Boy A, and Girl A is extremely irked, as both Girl C and Girl B are flirting with him. A few months after the breakup, Girl B starts liking Boy A, and vice versa. However, Boy A stops liking her, as he knows he cannot trust her. Boy B, who has always liked her, will have his heart broken. Presently, it's awkward between Boy A and Girl A. And Girl A is getting killed inside by her conflicting emotions. Wow, that's complicated.
