    For as long as I’ve been old enough to understand the concept of 'dirty words ’ lollygagging has sounded to me like one of the very dirtiest.

      If you have a moderate understanding of anime culture, you’ll know that it means something different, and very disturbing.

        That word is a little older than anime.

          Don’t bring age into this discussion, I’m begging you.

            I wasn’t bringing your age into it, or mine. Usage/meaning of lollygagging predates anime is all I said. Had I wanted to go the route you are suggesting I’d have called you kid.

              I was making a joke. I know the word is old. In the anime context it’s relates to paedophilia, hence, my reluctance to even define it.
