Hmmmmmmmm, I must be young at heart. I figured out what it meant and I am old - a "boomer". LOL!

Love,

Katy--Please solve this puzzle. I am completely Gen X and I completely read it as an evil laugh!

Just like the ones I laugh, late at night, thinking about evil GI doctors and shrinks.....

Joe's version of what i meant by mwa is correct, it is my evil laugh... i also occasionally laugh by saying bwa ha ha ha! but usually mwa ha ha ha!

Ant, I believe the word comes from when people don't actually kiss friends or blow kisses to babies to teach them how to kiss!

I got it right too, because at Linda's request, (a few months ago), I added an emoticon just for that purpose:

, and it's code name is "mwahaha".

OKKKKKK

I think I get it now.....if say the word "mmmaaaaahhhhhh" my lips make a kiss like motion (like the emoticon)

Well kisses to all! ant

Ant,

It appears that you've been side-tracked again. You apparently missed a post by Naty:

The emoticon represents an evil, (mad-scientist type), laugh.

Too much brain fog

I stand corrected.

Tex/Ant
the misunderstanding is mostly my fault

my gal pal in london uses the MWAH as a closing to her emails etc and means the kiss connotation
the first time she did it i had to google it to confirm what ie means

Gabes- Both meanings are correct, I was just using the evil laugh version!
