We really need a shorthand way of saying "blink blink, that's random." I'd use that every day on this forum. BBTR?

I believe "smote" might work, although it would sound strange. Smitten would sound better but, as has been pointed out, is usually used in a different context.

How about: " . . . " That's what I would imagine manga or video game characters saying (or not saying) in that sort of situation.

By the way, I really enjoyed reading your BAW SSB, PHJ. (Hmm... that's a lot of three-letter acronyms). And thanks for including me and giving me a line in this one. I feel so special. I'm glad that I get to be a communications officer and join the ranks of such notables as Hoshi Sato and Uhura and...wait a minute. You're not calling me a girly man, are you?
