Konata Yuki~
Nope have never sexted, but my cousin hays and she got caught. Fortunatly she is of age so she got in trouble only with her parents
lol. Just by the way words are my thing and I cheklck YouTube daily hoping for move videos!!!!! LOVE YOU
the way it is described i have received a naked pic from someone,
but i think there is another way you can sext (another fake word) it is similar to phone sex. what you do, obviously, is text back and forth between each other what would happen or what you would do if the 2 of you were having sex at that moment. obviously i know this because i have done this before.
sexting is actually illegal in America. it is marked as child pornography
i agree with jeffzhigs. if your lessons werent so interesting the you’d put me to sleep
I love your voice. It’s so soothing.
Great word! I’ve really enjoyed my sexting messages!
Lol, i never even heard of this word before. Either it hasn’t reach the asia countries yet or i’m more pure. Btw, thanks for the info.
lmao funny
Long time no see Elahie. I hope everything’s running just fine, smooth and okay on your side of the planet.
lol do you even kno where i live?
A very important lesson. Thank you teacher!
Sexting? No,no,no!Our Deflector shileds(down 25%) are holding strong! We have taken some hits in the moral Dept.but, so far our softwear hasnt been affected and we are dtecting no problem with our “hard drive”
o
no, never did any sexting.. web camming yes.
Now I did find some pics on my son’s fun, that he had to erase.
You gotta have super bionic eyes even to see
a nude picture on a cell phone.They do nothing for me.
nooooo, thanx God people in here are still not so addicted to the new technologies as elsewhere.still we rather go naked in reality then in Matrix

Sexting of an individual below the age of 18 is distribution of child pornography! In most states the law imposes one count per photo! So, beware! Don’t do it!! It’s a serious crime.
Goodness, Marina, maybe your dentist needs to lower his fees.
Home work: No I have never sexacated anyone. But I do have this baby picture of me in a crib when I was a tot when my diaper fell off I could show you.
Spell “evian” backwards.
Goodnight, everybody.
Thanks for everything you do, Marina. Sleep tight.
Marina: Sexting, schmexting, you are one hot babe.
I would like to request the phrase [esse meus puella?]
hey sexyting
i was wondering where the word [night] comes from
i know that it has a similarity in various languages, which is to be composed by the letter ‘n’ and the word for the number 8 in each language.
i understand why the word would be chosen in this way, since the number eight is similar to infinity, but i’d love to know it’s origin
much appreciated
cheers
.
Sp: [noche] (eight = ocho)
Fr: [nuit] (eight = huit)
Ge: [nacht] (8 = acht)
Ru: [ночь] (8 = восемь)
We: [nos] (8 = wyth)
Hmm…the pattern breaks down on the last two.
hmmm
i can add two more
Pt: [noite] (8 = oito)
Ita: [notte] (8 = otto)
i guess it apllies mostly to latin or latin-influenced languages
why is that?
coz people went to bed after 8?
of sand time
haha rotfl
good one ;D
since our/as well all the other slavic languages/ noc is same as russian noč /ночь/ i don see any conection to 8 -osem, vosem /восемь/
so im asking myself why u even mention it?
well, i mentioned it didn’t happen with every language.
but mostly with those that derive from or are influenced by latin in some way. so i was wondering if there is some story to this.
the way i see it is that the “eight” evokes the infinity symbol, and that it is connected to our dreams and imagination, during the [night] time when we sleep.

Re: Sexting lesson
Capman,
How are you feeling today, mi amigo?
Cool Gravatar OS
Thanks, Che.
I’ll second Che’s comment.
Thanks, Evan Owen. Reckon it’s about time, huh?
So tell us what it represents?
She was my musical muse.
That is a very nice Gravatar originalistrick you got any history about it
Appreciate it, danielpool.
Well, it’s a porcelain mask given to me by a lady who was in my life once upon a time. Kind of hard to see, but across her forehead is a keyboard. Eighth notes bisect her eyes. Lavender on her cheeks, couple of ribbons down each side of her face. Pairs of eighth notes near the corners of her mouth. Eye shadow matches the cheeks. Really pretty “in person.”
Thanks for the three dimensional description, it would be nice to see it enlarged.
hey thanks for the info
It’s just gorgeous. I beautiful piece of art.
Thanks, I feel good about my using it. Private symbolic thing and all.
Fine my friend just fine. If the rain would ever stop I feel like having cabin fever now where you can get out and do some things. I see M has changed a few pictures and added some new ones . The site looks great. I love that beautiful picture of her she put on twitter. If I was only 20 years younger. Aaaah. She know how to break a man’s heart.
Glad to hear you’re well! And you’re so right about Marina-the unwritten subtitle to HFW should be HEARTBREAKER.
Марина, ты супер
So what is the ETA on the new GTWG?
Later today? Tomorrow? Hoy? Manana?
Oh, PS, Got carried away making commentaries under the “Whoops,” avocado Twitpic photo but that photo lends itself to so much humor.
When making Guac, Remember to put the lid on the blender?
Good one, go post it under the photo
Looks like the GTWG is being delivered by the Space Shuttle ‘Discovery’.
Marina,
Twitpic “Find me!”
You’re the one holding the other kid?
And tell us who everyone in the photo is.
1) TubeMogul looks like an excellently made product — especially when one moves the slider on the horizontal (time) axis.
2) No idea what the stuff in the Top Posts column means — did go to the web-site but could not make a head or tail of what they were actually measuring and the information they were claiming to convey.
3) Hard to read the Nerd Words column because of the repetitive words — perhaps the column title could be changed to Nerd Word of the Day (plural – Days?) and the content of the column to just the word?
Marina,
How about [RENDER]?
[RENDER] unto Caesar…
[RENDER] speechless…
[RENDER] a carcass…
Thanks.
Render an archatectual design.
‘Mornin’, everybody!
Love your banner photo, Marina!
If you like Monty Python, you need to see “Spamalot” if you get the chance. Richard Chamberlain is playing King Arthur in this run, and he’s great. Merle Dandridge plays The Lady of the Lake. Wonderful voice and hilarious, too. Liked The lady of the Lake and her Laker Girls.
Although I am NOT interested in being a TA, I have a question involving TA selection: On HFW-site, I once came across a page — which I cannot find now — that had a disabled-link to a quiz (designed by The7MillionDollarMan) that prospective TAs were required to take; the page said that the quiz had been removed for some reason (forget the exact reason).
Although I could not find that page with the disabled-link to the quiz, I found a page where the quiz might have been: http://www.hotforwords.com/ta-.....app/
Anyway: I am curious about that quiz and would like to see it. Anyone know where it might exist? Mike, I think you took that quiz — do you have a copy?
For your listening pleasure:

Homework
I have never sexted.
Love the new style.. But I still wish paged comments would go away.
Or at least page only after a very large number of comments, say, 200
The ultimate solution is to have a user-selectable preference for paging. This shouldn’t be too hard to achieve. The files for a particular lesson could still be left as they are (arranged for paging), but WP would just ignore that and concatenate them for non-paging users.
Speaking of preferences, howcumzit there aren’t any user profiles in WP?
Who was the first TA? I cant ever remember him or ever remember seeing him here.
Jay
http://www.hotforwords.com/ta-.....jay/
What I meant was where the hell is/was he? I have never seen him comment anywhere and if he did he certainly isnt here now.
Avalanche got him?
Good Day…Propaganda & Mind Control Report Part 1…informative
Hey, does it make a difference if we click on the advertisements?
short answer: yes.
is there a long answer?
Yes, pk and captain Jack have explained it to me several times. They used all sorts of words and terms that you would appreciate. What I basically got from it was that if I click on the ads, somehow Lady M gets credit for that. I usually click on most of them. The dating services, I avoid; I do not need to try to explain that to Mrs. Somebody. A few days ago, we also had an ad for some DVD that “disproved” Jesus. I also stayed away from that; I will support the Lady, but even I still have some lines that I will not cross.
i.e. Bear Dating
Imagine if the advertisers thought of putting a picture of Marina on the ad, instead of their product, then everybody would click on it :>
Now that’s marketing, 2010 style. Bwhahaha!

Marina…. What is happening to these black gaps? The one at the side is weirds (but that might be at my end but whats the one at the top about??? Please don’t put an ad there! What about a widget or something
Google allows only 3 ads per page.
More widgets have a tendency to slow the site down.
Black gaps, are there especially to try to frighten you!
Any more questions?
Word request: [widget]
What’s with the “floating widget” in cans of Guinness these days? I cut my finger prying the hole open to inspect it.
Shake the can, and it sounds like a can of spray paint.
As far as beer goes Guinness is considered a healthy drink, but if you watching your caloric intake then use moderation, 125 calories per bottle then again this is less calories than some sodas.
Oh my god…. I just saw a can of guiness (we never have it) downstairs I shook it and there was the float inside it… I haven’t seen one for about 3 years. My god… How scarily conincedental is that!
Guinness gets its bubbles from nitrogen instead of carbon dioxide and the widget allows it to head correctly when poured from a can instead of a keg.
Милая Марина,
***Website idea***: Put a pattern of stars [constellations] in the black bar at the right!
how about this one? i actually like that one, too.
yeah, and while you’re at it, put some pink elephants and rainbow-colored whales in there, too. pfff.
красная звезда!
besides, i think the preferred nomenclature would be “african-american bar.”
.
Full cycle:
colored people
negros
blacks
afro-americans
people of color…
colored people
Personally I prefer “chocolate” and “vanilla” people to “black & white” people
James,
If you’ll take advice from a technophobe — if the black bar troubles you, the obvious solution is to shrink your browser window to the width of the comment field.
Marina, if nothing else, you’d make a terrific web designer!
But we all know there’s plenty else!
I like the new banner of you Marina.
I see you are keeping an eye on me cause no matter where I sit, you are still looking at me.
Very nicely, of course.
A fine example of sarcasm Cubefarm
Wow! She’s a great performer, worthy of SNL, etc. She can give a look and you know exactly what she means.
I just love here accent, cufan turned me on to her channel.

opposing opinions are raped out of existence through censorship sideswiping, not to mention cohersion and peer pressure prodding. suppose it’s a way to make the world appear shrunk down on the head of a pin, or like squeezing public opinion into a vacuous cloud of mass hypnosis by sucking a collective of brains through a tiny straw, boring, bland fodder keeps em dumbed down, nothing with substance = a lazy sell.
basically it’s a YT held hostage by a lynch mob of wannabes claiming a clean image patrol of fakery, it’s mainly comprised of 15 year olds pretending that their idols are incapable of bad behaviour, if anyone dare disagree in comment they’ll get slapped with some censorship and senseless gang plank mentality attack by a status quo of brainwarshed soft shelled baby mush heads. snap! (bubble gum)
Miley? eh
No, but Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian would know better by now.
Hi Marina I Like the new layout on your website.The picture of you on the top is very pretty. Word request [ENDURANCE] Thanks Marina
Nice new banner on the site, Marina!
You’re also my iPod Touch wallpaper haha. I would put you on the computer background but I can’t find a picture big enough
One fifty two one you where is the new lesson???
Marina,
I looked at the RSS reader FeedDemon from NewsGator and find that it is good for my needs. A key feature is that its update frequency can be configured — I could not configure the update frequency of readers from Yahoo, Google and FireFox (even after using FireFox’s hidden preference feature.)
Anyway, at present the HFW site offers only the posts as RSS feed — for example, the current feed has:
* Sexy Teacher
* Sexting
* Nerd Word of the Day: Locavore
* Top 10 Women of Twitter
* German Jump Radio Show
* Nerd Word of the Day: Bacn
* On Arabic Television
* Nerd Word of the Day: Friendiligence
* Normal
* Interview in Russian Magazine - Afisha
I suspect it is technically possible to offer the list of “Recent Comments” and “Recent Forum Posts” as a RSS feed — would you please consider this if you haven’t already?
–Hs4Mm
The hard part is likely to be to keep the quintessential (lesson word!) HFW-items separate from the user-comments and forum-posts. It would be bad if, in the RSS feed, the HFW-posts got lost among the user-comments/forum-posts!
Marina,
What’s the chocolate you are “biting into” in the banner (and while watching TV in the annotations lesson)? You are not actually biting the chocolate — you are resting it on your lower lip with a slight downward pressure. It is as thin as an After Eight Mint, but has the color of a Toblerone (if I remember correctly, After Eights are black and wavy, while Toblerones are brown, rigid with flat surfaces) … is it a sliced-up Toblerone?
Picture of something like chocolate (which looks more like a piece of Toblerone than what’s in the banner) from Annotations video.
as far as the homework goes:
yes
Hey , I’am a reptile…
Do you have a reptile dysfunction?
I love the new banner!!
Thanks James! Also, moving stuff around right now.. so pardon the dust!
Well its almost midnight now, and my mums birthday tomorrow, so I will let the dust settle
If you need anything, you know where I am!
I see a big black bar… I don’t know what it is… Its scaring me…
The big black bar’s coming to get you!!!
ok….rebuild??????????????
All bars are created equal and not to be judged by the colour of their pixels lol
It is quite scary Marina, make it stop please. I don’t come here to be subjected to
this kind of mental torture.
Also, I have visited here on internet explorer and there are no ads. Stop it Marina, stop it! stop it! stop it!
1) Keep the quote moving… ”
All bars are created equal and not to be judged by the colour of their pixelsbut by the content of their character.”2) My IE browser shows the ads. Why would that be different. Maybe, the ads on IE cannot make the swim across the pond.
3) Great job on your new vids. I like the direction you are taking. Some of you is beginning to show through. I think that is what will make your vids stand apart from the crowd. Keep up the great work, lad.
Pardon me for intruding on your conversation with the Lady. You may continue, now.
Can you comment rate and favourite my new one please even if you hate it… I need to try and get it through the most
corrupt*cough* viewed lists etcLOL no problems, Just don’t do it again
… LOLn
Fat lady: “I didn’t come here to be insulted.”
Groucho: “Well, where do you go to be insulted?”
I’m getting white circles where there…what’s this! A parental block alert message came up. No sexting for me
I’m impressed, too. Anything else we should be looking forward to?
News Flash:
Female ‘Vampire’ Unearthed in Venice

.
Once, when poor Marina was texting,
A fan asked her, “Please send me sexting.”
She answered, “You cad!
“You’re naughty! You’re bad!
“I find your proposal quite vexting!”
OK, can anyone else do better?
Time for a chicken-fried steak at Threadgil’s (R.I.P., Pearl. You also, Kenneth.) Then see “Spamalot”.
Talk to ya’ll later, guys and dolls.
The chickens fry the steaks?
I’m getting a little impatient over the new GTWG. I hope it will be up soon.
I finally got to see the vid. I have sort of fixed this. I am still not sure what happened, but it seems to be working – for now.
The answer to the new Guess the Word Game is ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ‘Grotto’
Wow, dude. You must be psychotic or something.
I eat brain {long pause} food, like fish & Cheez-it
Imagination is a word I’m curious about since I have been studying Romanticism; declares it as an act of faith…?
I like message toward the end: There should not be laws against people doing stupid things! People should have the right to do stupid things. It is the responsibility of parents (not of politicians, not of government, not of “society”) to teach kids to act sensibly.
Homework: You haven’t yet seen even one sexted image of me? You think maybe Rule #1 is false?
Hey, Marina,
What’s the latest you’re hearing from the YouTube geniuses about their self-inflicted problems? I’m assuming all is still not well.
Thanks.
Looking forward to the new GTW Game lesson you’re preparing, Dear Teach.
Appreciate you.
My new video is up, I amgoing to try not to view it more than 3 times to see what youtube does.
Not to be a buzzkill, but I just heard that a stack of ONE THOUSAND dollar bills would reach 67.9 MILES high to reach ONE BILLION dollars.
Visualize this while you’re thinking about the TRILLIONS in debt our socialist leaders continue to put us in. (Another Republic of Texas is looking pretty good right about now…)
Assuming the American definition of a billion (1,000,000,000) and that the bills are stacked flat, and allowing a generous .01 inch bill thickness (.004 plus air space), 1,000,000 × .01 ÷ 12 = 833 1/3 ft, or .16 mile. That is a far cry from 68 miles.
I know what you mean about the most popular thing Marina, The UK list is the same on most viewed as it is on most popular
of course it is a real word. it’s a linguistic unit used in a certain structure, and it has a certain meaning.
i don’t see an argument why “sexting” is not, or can’t be, a real word. that claim is just untenable once you start to think about what language is and can be. from a linguistic point of view, this is just plain wrong and narrow-minded.
–> link.
cf. –> word formation, –> occasional word formation, –> LINGUIST List 17.1256.
So does that mean that
cangerlated
a “word” i just made up is a real word?
right now, it’s a string of letters / sounds.
if it has a meaning and if it, then, can be used systematically, or, as a part of a system, it’s a neologism. as such, it’s an occasional word. people may start to use it to describe something. if it spreads and if it sticks, it can become lexicalized, i.e. maybe it will some day show up in a dictionary. mind you, not all lexicalized words are listed in a dictionary.
HA! I enabled 3rd paty cookies. went on freds youtube channel click the vid and went on his video list… guess what…. QUANTSERVE! what the hell!!!! I really cant believe youtube is using tracking cookies. user relevant ads, what a pile of shit. When you are watching a video you want to watch you aren’t going to click an ad that obscures your video because its plainfuckin annoying! I am glad I have an adblock.
Keep in mind that if it wasn’t for the ads, you would probably have to pay for using youtube, and most other popular sites on the internet. Do you know how expensive it is to host a web portal of this size? Just look at what wikipedia does to keep their site up, it is literally begging for sponsors.
Adblock is hurting the business of many people, including Marina.
I know what you mean, but I never click ads, becuase they have always been totally useless to me….
” you have won a prize!!!! ”
No I haven’t
When I am on youtube I want to watch videos and not to be interupted by ads all the time
The reason I got an adblocker was because I kept getting ads from bloody smileycentral up that spoke and it was driving me insane.
All the ads are telling you you have won something, dating, or diets
I am not stupid… I have not won anything
I am 16. I would rather go out and date someone I know.
Look at me… Do you really think I need a diet? No, and I am happy with who I am and what I am and even if I was on the large side I still wouldnt give in to that sociological pressure
I don’t allown 3rd party cookies because I like to keep what I do on the net to myself without other people collecting my data.
“carefully selected 3rd parties” whatever, they are about as carefully selected as a tramps diet.
Sometimes I will just go on internet explorer come here and click all the ads, because I know how it works for Marina.
Youtubes behaviour lately has been disgusting and I hope they do start to loose money because of it…. The fact they have just started to give people “user targeted ads” (tracking cookies) is a sure sign they are feeling a pinch ATM.
And I wouldn’t pay to use youtube I just would’nt go on it.
Marina, could you let us know where [poppycock] comes from?
I have never “sexted” someone. I don’t even feel right saying the words “texted” or “texting.” It feels so unusual.
I hate the word texted, but, alas, I think I may have started to use it
Which Is Awful.
But I never have, and I never will say “textes”
that winds me up so much!
IT’S TEXTS YOU MORONS.
Exactly. As for “texted,” I feel more comfortable with “he/she/they sent me a text” than “he/she/they texted me.”
Lookout! “Textes” is too much like “testes”.
Maybe they’re Texas cojones.
Muy grande cojones!
Or just. he/she/they text me.
Right.
Word Request: misdemeanor. In the U.S. Constitution it states that a President may be impeached for ‘treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors’ [Article 2, Section 4]. Today, however, a misdemeanor is generally understood to be a minor offense. Presumably the framers of the constitution did not intend that a sitting President should be impeached for jaywalking. So when did ‘misdemeanor’ transform from meaning a serious crime to meaning a lesser offense?
Eric M
i 2nd that
Hi.
I’d like to request the word [Computer]. Everybody knows what a computer is, but where does it come from?
WLIU, computers were originally persons whose job was computing, i.e. doing math to achieve some results, such as making actuarial tables. Because humans have been relieved of those kinds of tedious tasks by the invention of adding machines, calculators and now computers, the term as it applies to persons has faded away.
It makes sense to me. I know that a typewriter was originally the person who did the typing, so this makes sense.
Nope, never have, never will. (Not that anyone would want to see me in my Birthday suit.) The rule I tend to follow is don’t put anything on the ‘net or send anything via call phone or email that you wouldn’t want shown on tv or a national newspaper.
My dearest teacher: I would like to know the origin of the phrase [heart attack.]
Why is it said to be an attack and an attack by whom on what? My body on my heart or my heart on my body?
If you’ll excuse me I have to take a nitroglycerin tab now.
{Sadowski mistakenly bites into the tab, his head blows off and rolls around on the floor of the blog.}
A heart attack means an attack on the heart by the situation surrounding it (blood vessels). It is hard to point to a condition as an material object, like soldiers attacking a castle.
Word request: [petrology] — getting stoned?
A geologist friend of mine and I were hiking through a volcanic area near Mount Baker. “Is that basalt?” I asked about a striking rock formation.
“I wouldn’t take it for granite,” he replied.
Ah! So now you’re a Rock-it scientist? No Schist!
Most people won’t understand your jokes, (which is just as well since Igneous is bliss), and may conclude that you are being not Gneiss. However, I realise that you couldn’t give everyone a short course in Geology before telling them; that would be putting the Karst before the Horst.
I suppose that once you become a bit Boulder you will be mentioning Marina’s Cleavage and getting Sedimental about her Shear clothing.
Talking of Cleavage brings up the topic of Intrusive Dikes which are often associated with Thrusting movements in a Bed. Most people wouldn’t associate dikes with any sort of thrusting, but then you never know what can happen when a dike is in an Orogenous zone.
Enough already! I’ve lost my Apatite for any more just now.
Don’t blame me for these; they’re not my Fault – I copied them from another web site so I guess that makes me guilty of Plagioclasm.
Bob, I love reading this stuff. You are clever beyond “fault.”
Bob, I marble at your wit! Speaking metamorphically, you are a veritable lode of clever nuggets of wordplay.
But for all this is an ‘andy site to post our humour, I’m petrified of a punning contest with you — it could turn into a basalt on our fellow students’ sensibilities. Best to lava well enough alone!
Ya’ll are making me “quake” with laughter!
It’s nice to see you all have the flint to aggregate this mountain of terminology. I’d join in, but I have too much on my plate right now.
I’d compose a “lime”-rick about this, but it’s too “tsunami” in the morning. I’m just gonna stay “sedimentary” on the couch.
Hey, I just discovered Harry Potter DIDN’T fight a batholith in the Chamber of Secrets. Not unless one has a lithp.
Hmmmm…
Who put the “s” in lisp?
Some cruel bastard…
Hey Marina! Tell us some Russian puns!
hello everyone! Sexting is a crime in Japan as well. some teens were actually arrested. so i have to be careful not to do that.
That raises an interesting point. If a minor creates what the law regards as child porn using him- or herself, any person receiving it could be prosecuted, but could the creator? Could one be prosecuted for “exploiting” oneself?
Never Sexted someone with a picture of myself (though–on Yahoo! Messenger a long time ago–I would regularly TEXT-sext ‘Calista Flockhart’ … it was my college days, I was lonely and a little crazy—hadn’t yet experienced the joy of the Lady HotForWords, Ph.D.-experience)
Милая Марина,
“Sexting is not a real word…” Sorry, I have to disagree with you on this. English came to have the largest vocabulary of any language on earth (that is true, isn’t it?) due to its habit of continually evolving and inventing and borrowing words to describe new meanings associated with changing times and environments. “Sexting” is just another example of this continuing characteristic of our language.
Here’s a “nerd word” from Bulgaria:
“блогодаря” (blogodarya): expressing thanks to someone in one’s blog.
OK, I admit that’s pretty obscure.
Is not English a “MUTT” speaking of many tribes?
…Evan and good day
Good point, Leonard, about English as a “mutt” language and thanks for the Marina flashback.
Word requests:
[sheep] [mutton]
[swine] [pork]
[cow, bull] [beef]
Why do we have these pairs of words — one for the animal in the field, one for its meat on the table?
Well Marina is the philologist, so I sit back and take it
It’s not a word
Capt. Jack could confirm this, but sexting began long ago. A nautical navigator would hold some kind of instrument up to the horizon, look through it and determine his position by looking at the sun.
Go figure. I thought a “sextent” was a Bedouin brothel.
Nap Time
John: Do you rap, while you nap?
I would think there were some whom were expressing doubts as for her coming to America and or a internal struggle with the decision.

So this is youtube excuse for the view problems
http://www.youtube.com/blog?en.....9Y00m1vmhA
So does that mean that every one on youtube with more than 200 views used automatic view programs then? YouTube is acting up lately and people are asking questions now. I really don’t know what they think they are doing, soon, this could start to effect peoples earnings.. A “view!!” Idiots at youtube said
A REAL view! What the hell!
A view is when someone views the video end of… If someone watched it twice thats 2 views… Put mathematically here

Is that too hard for YT too work out? They have totally messed up not just Marinas videos but everyone elses. I really don’t know what they are playing at… I see either another youtube strike happening again or people leaving…. in thousands.
They have got no regard for anyone but themselves. Like the contact page that says, you can email YT if you can’t find help in the help center… If you cant find help there…. there is no link!
I really hope this its youtubes pockets….. HARD

Hi, Michelle Schlachta, Community Manager of The YouTube Team! У меня есть предложение по монетизации сервиса YouTube. С кем мне связаться? Александр Клейн. Moscow meil: post2@zen.ru
What is this person saying? Something nasty?
Something like “I have a proposal for monetary service YouTube. With whom do I contact? Alexander Klein.”
So he’s calling her a whore, (prostitute)
MY NAME WAS IN THIS!! urm
No I have never sexted someone…. I liked this lesson though..
Well me and the exwife took some naked pictures together once and a sent them off to be developed does that count?
Marina, this is not necessarily a non word, more of a slang word for the practice of mostly young women sending naked pictures to their texting boyfriends. There is a video on msnbc of a tragic consequence for on young lady whom had sexted her boyfriend at the time.

And here is a prosecution leading from the practice of disseminating the pictures

Hotforwords teaches us non-words now?
Woo, lol!
I don’t know where to add this one… to which cortex of my brain;
Not to the “English words” segment, and not even to the “general culture” one. But I could add it to a part of my vrain (virtual brain), to use later as a thing to tickle my funny bone with!

I agree with this about 80% of the time. It’s the other 20% that make you want to bang your freaking skull against the wall in wonder why it won’t work!

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!
One of my videos just got yanked off Youtube.
Dumb youtube people. That video was up for six months and ten days with no problem.
Why did it get yanked? Also most videos stay up unless someone flags it. Funny thing though on of the students her spotted a YT video that had links to a virus and it took YT a week to pull it. I had to go to Google to get it pulled.
It was my “Fat Bottomed Girls” video. I guess some of the pictures were “unsuitable”.
I didn’t see it. If it’s copyrighted material then that why. Might have been from the photos. Not sure. Didn’t see you vid so hard to guess. It really all depends if someone complains about your video or not. If no one flags your video then your good. If you do get flagged then you can always talk with YT about it. That might take forever though.
HI!
Homework: No I have never done that.
Are you trying to tell us something? Are there naked pictures of Hotforwords floating around the internet that may have been originally sent to a boyfriend? I guess that would explain all the talk about marriage being a big gamble and all the horrible things that happened to give us so many words related to Valentine’s day. That explanation about naked pictures wanting to be free seems well rehearsed. It must have been a conversation that you’ve had before. That’s understandable for a model. I believe that when politicians have compromising pictures taken of them that find their way into the public view they claim that the photos were [photoshopped]. So if that ever happens to you, remember that word. I have never done sexting. I can’t stand to see pictures of myself fully clothed. Sexting is much too daring for me.
I wholeheartedly agree with the statement at 0:55 that this word should have “gone on the list” of Nerd Words of the Day. So why didn’t it? It would have freed up a lesson for a real word. Poo!
I wish you would back off on the green screen periodically. I like looking at your bedroom.
All you ever send are pictures of Gorby, peace signs & food
Is it only considered a word once it is in the dictionary?
So before a word is indoctrinated in the OED what is it, Slang?

ok
Homework: No, not really – why? Did you see one?
Here’s a scene from “The Rocker”
called Naked Drummer
Marina, I got 4.3 million results when I googled “sexting”. I worry that many of these are mainstream media types and amateur bloggers who really wouldn’t care if “sexting” became a word. Some have heard it so much they probably think it already is anyway. They’re probably not ashamed to admit they’ve done it, either (or know those who have).
I cringe at this every time I hear another story about someone doing this. The mention of the “word” almost drives me to change the channel. Maybe someday people will learn.
Well done.
Marina, will you sexting me in an e-mail. Hay I have been good so you put the idea of sexual thought out there[(PICTURES)].!!!!
I was wondering if you could sexting me on my e-mail. I hope your fans are not upset since you brought the word up. I thought I might ask.
Bon giorno MB (or is it afternoon with you now?)
Marina replied to three or four of my comments before I confessed how crazy I was about her
. Then she quit replying to me so I’d cool down.
Is there a lesson in that for you?
Even , there is a lesson here . I’m not sure this constitutes “virtually” masturbating as some suggest , but it might come close.
sounds like the old dog experiment seeing the meat just out of reach and the dog salivates certain amount of cruelty there…
No sexting here…
But in years earlier, my girlfriend sent me poliroid foto’s…
Marina, Did you wash your tattoo off?
Hello Marina,
I like the green screen editing that you’ve done and I look forward to future experiments.
No sexting, just the old fashioned polaroids (not of me).
[GOOSEBUMPS]
No never did & never will
SuperSam.
You’re so busy…hey, that tweetbubble message was pretty cool
You said that right–greatestpotential
Hmm… still no luck with the vid. My homepage has a YT section with a list of “most yadayadayada vids” and I am not even getting the thumbnails for those. Something is blocking all my YT pages and feeds.
Oh well. It is almost time for work, anyway. I guess I will try to watch the vid tomorrow, unless something else goes kaphooey.
Hi Marina,
I like your new backdrop… two thumbs up!
Nope… I’m not a sexting type of person. HOWEVER… friend was getting “snuggy under the covers” with girl in our van. Me and another friend said we were leaving… we crawled under van and waited…
then… with a automatic camera in hand, we slid over to the back doors of the van. When the time was right… Shazam!! we opened the doors and pulled away the blanket.

Told him we were gonna mail the pics to his Mom if he didn’t buy us a case of beer!
Dear Marina, No, I have never sexted anyone. I hope you do’t do that, either. It’s not nice, and sometimes it can be used it hurtful ways. I rate and comment on your videos on YouTube nearly every time you post a new video, so I hope this imprves your popularity. The count on your website has exceeded 170 million, already. So I expect you will reach the 200 million mark in a few more weeks. I hope it’s soon.

Experts Agree Giant, Bioengineered Crabs Pose No Threat
Sexting? Looks like a new crime has just been invented. And I think airport security is now legally allowed by some spiffy new technological gadget to take naked pictures of anybody (of any age) seeking to board a plane without even having to remove their clothes.

Excellent video, Marina! Much, much better use of your green screen than on some American popculture celebrities I don’t even know
.
Nice earrings, too!
Marnia, good choice for the video’s category selection. (comedy)
The “FTW” video did well and still analyzing things about that run, and of course, coincidentally was linked to the Blick article.
Cannot get the vid to load, either here or YT.
neither here nor YT
All is well here. Might be your local ISP or downstream.
In the last few days, my provider did some local street work (b-boxes, etc) that upset my connectivity.
I can get other sites fine. I do not even see the vid here, just a big, white, empty space. I cannot get a YT page to come up at all. My page stays the same, but my status bar is in limbo. I am trying IE and FF, all to no avail.
Will someone please package up a VHS for me and place it in your mailbox?
Can I sextit?
I’m just having way too much fun.
Try disabling any virus or Ad blocking software.
By the way, I run my PC extremely lean. No antivirus, no ad blockers, no nothing, no problems.

Plumbing. I have a box of nipples in the basement. Pictures are available, although if you’ve seen one you have, pretty much, seen them all.
I knew you were going to do this one, since it was on the Today show
Time to pay up [tributary]
Great
Homework:
Not exactly…uh, not intentionally…never mind.
Awesome video Marina.
Love the old school blackboard and apple look.
Marina,
You hit a homerun with this one!
Nope, never sexted, First!
PK,
Are you saying you never initiated the sexting?
Hey originalistrick, that is correct.
Coincidentally, I happened to also
be the First! commenter.
By the way, did you notice that we posted at exactly the same time? I just happened to be 23 picoseconds faster than you.
Here, let me whip this out…
Hey, hey, not going there, I was just going to whip out this graph.
I just be messin’ widdja.
Hey, speaking of whipping something out, remember Blazing Saddles?
“Excuse me while I whup this out…”
(And the crowd gasps!)
You are funny originalistrick,
Yes, Blazing Saddles is one of my all time favorites, from whence I stole that phrase. Besides, I have some good yarns to tell about that movie when and where I first saw it. Good times, but not at Ridgemont High.
