At six, we stand round the computer and read the next day's page, make final changes, put in a few euphemisms to amuse ourselves...
Alice
Such as?
Dan
He was a convivial fellow-meaning he was an alcoholic. He valued his privacy-gay. He enjoyed his privacy-raging queen.
Alice
What would my euphemism be?
Dan
She was... disarming.
Alice
That's not a euphemism.
Dan
Yes, it is.
