I meant "naturally"

Yesterday I ended an email with "you're invited, natch." The recipient hadn't seen the colloquial definition and instead thought it meant "rump of beef." Later he said, "I thought maybe it was a term of endearment."

About
Moira Burke

Psst! This is the blog of Moira Burke, a Ph.D. student in the HCI Institute at Carnegie Mellon University.

Rife with derivative pop culture blather, this site occasionally features thoughts on social psychology, usability, aesthetics, and the general meanderings of someone figuring out the meaning of life. Won't you help me find it?
