Alright I figured this might be a good thread for people new to message boards and all of that, like me :D . I have a hard time with all of these abrevations anymore(go ahead laugh) I would like this to be sort of...... a dictionary for internet language.

For example I have been seeing IMO, IMHO, what do they stand for ? If you have any other internet slang also post it here and I will put a complete list together for all of us noobs :D , thank you for your time !

You dont have to be smart to decipher it... i had to ask for pretty much all of them myself... Not knowing them ddoesnt indicate stupidity, it indicates trhat you have probabbl;y seen real sunlight and spoken to real people in the past several months

Why isit that only idiots seem to make it into management? The company i work for now is amazing in that they seem to only hire competent folk.... VERY scary.

ROTFLOL Roll on the floor laugh out load
Load? LOAD???

Also, the IMHO, to me the H is honest...aint nothin' humble about it...but, I am being HONEST about what my opinion is.
Although, I gotta say I usually just stick with IMO...one would assume that if it's your own opinion, it's honest enough, to you, anyways.

it's a metal gadget ? that when your pipes are clogged you put the snake in the hole and it makes way so it can drain. I had to do this just this summer in my basement with an eletric eel (sp) shit every where (literally) :D

Urg, yeah...I know what you mean with the whole rolflmfao...etc...how many people actually leave their chair at all is probably pretty minimal.
Other than that...I've always kinda thought it would be funny if people actually went around saying "LOL".

I have actually rolled on the floor - once - because I was laughing so hard, and it was in public yet. It was at a university sponsored showing of this incredible SEVEN HOUR montage movie called "The movie Orgy" which assembled outtakes, snippets of films, advertisements, various training films, etc. into once long bizarre experience that at times was SO FUNNY that I actually well- fell out of my chair I was laughing so hard and was rolling around laughing. This incredible film was an early project by none other than Joe Dante- before he ever released a feature.
