Today I was looking into good places to buy Broadway tickets for cheap. Or at least less expensive, nothing is cheap in this city. After reading many informational websites and reviews, I noticed that a lot of people use the shorthand "Tix" when talking about "Tickets." When the hell did people just decide to throw an "x" wherever they felt like and then say, "Yea that means "Christmas." Or, "That there 'x' means a kiss." By the way I totally don't understand how the "x" in "xoxo" is the kiss. Is it the kiss? It's gotta be the hug. If each person was a slash it would be two people bent over giving one of those awkward hugs where you stick your ass out so your pee-pee doesn't rub up on the other people's shit. And the "o" looks like puckered lips ready to get in there. Anyways back to the topic at hand. I think the "x" really just promotes laziness and that's why I'm going to campaign and lobby against "x." I'm really not sure how I'm going to go about doing this yet but would life really be different? It might even make it easier because when people type in a website on my computer, if it starts with an "x," it is surely going to show what I've been spending my weekday nights and weekend days doing.
The "x" doesn't have a universal meaning. In "tix" the "x" is the "-ckets." So does "fax" really mean "fackets?" Well that sounds terrible! Or is it "Fa-Christ?" I'm pretty sure Jesus would be pretty upset if he knew his surname was shortened to "x." He'd probably take back all of those wonderful things he did. "X-rated" = "Christ-rated." Was Mr. Jesus into that sort of stuff? I sure hope not!
In conclusion, there is only one "x" that is really important. Let me show you.
