Hi.

reading through all your posts, i got wondering.

What are all these special "things" you all keep typing, such as lmao, and one- i think- is rofmao or something similar.
Waht do they all mean and are there any others? thankyou- god- i am SO thick!

Hi Saffy
I only know some of them myself ;)
ROFLMAO means Roll on floor laughing my *** off
IMHO means In my humble opinion or in my honest opinion
Lol you will probably already know Laugh out loud...

anyone else for any more ....??? :o

ooohhh. thankyou. Yes, i did know lol, but the others? i havent a clue.

ps- can lol also mean lots of love??

oh- lel. Id roflmao means rolling on floor laughing my ass off, then, what i asked at the start- lmao- must mean laughing my ass off. Correct? Are there any others??

In the course of doing a search for you I came across this one
:-{} Blowing a kiss - thought it was rather nice :)

There are lots of acronyms here

Christine

Loads, would think if you type acronyms into a search engin you will find a list you can print out, must admit I have not tryed but would be suprised if there are not lists to print out. ;) OMG then you can drive us all mad FWIW but OTOH you may KISS and not go OTT

OK

OMG - Oh my g*d
FWIW - For what it's worth
OTOH - On the other hand
KISS - Keep it simple stupid
OTT - Over the top

oohhhh. thaks all. AWS, ICS you all are IB! TA. SCNR. I usually UNA, but since i FTS with ACRONYMS, ICNRTT.

IHNIWIAW, but i will RT ACRONYMS further so I can PUA. Yes, UWR, i have gone OTT. I will try to TID in future.

well, i was going to translate it, but i have no idea what i have written! ROFLOLSTC (rolling on floor lol, scaring the cat)

i think my last post goes like this-
AWS-as we speak, i can see
IB- incredibly bored!
TA- thanks anyway
SCNR-sorry, i could not resist
UNA-use no acronyms
FTS- found this site
ACROYNMs-Abbreviated Coded Rendition Of Name Yielding Meanings
ICNRTT- i could not resist the temptation
IHNIWIAS- i have no idea what i am saying
RT- research the
PUA-puzzle you all
UWR- you were right
OTT- over the top
TID- tone it down.

FEW!

EDITED to say- IRSGAL ( i really should get a life)

Don't know, may be we should run a contest on who can write the best sentence using acronyms. Think you may win :)

(got to go for my lie down. See you soon)

hehehe, i learn some interesting ones...but i spect id best not repeat them here!

this are the most common, other than those mentioned

RTFM= Read The F'ing Manual  (thats one i get when im asking boyf stupid computer questions when he is at work)
BRB  = Be Right Back
BAK  = Back At Keyboard

TTFN, Ta Ta For Now

Im sure there are more that i use but i cant remember them now

Em

Ah!!! spoilt my view of things - had thought that RTFM was used almost exclusively by women to men, and now you are telling me that there is a man that not only knows there are such things a manuals but also that it is a good idea to read them. Next thing you will be telling me is that he thinks stopping to ask directions when lost is a good idea.

ROFL @ Jackie! My thoughts exactly! A man reading instructions? Look at that lovely flock of pigs flying overhead!!!
:D :D
