Mademoiselle Satine

I just learned a new word: procrastination. I always thought I understood that word. I thought it said "spamming my flist (but in a meaningful way)" because whenever someone said he/she was procrastinating, they posted fic or meta or polls or cake recipes.

But what they actually said, was that they postponed something else by writing porn, fanfic, meta etc. Can you believe that?

I feel cheated (by the English language). No-one told me. I thought I got it from the context of the posts but I was still miles off.
