Forum Shorthand
Hey there,
I'm not really a noob, but I just wanted to find out what some of the forum shorthand means. I know that lol = laughing out loud and lmao = laughing my ass off, but I would like to know if there are any others that I (and others) may not know. Thanks! |
We tend not to use that much shorthand in the forum.
There is a lot of it in chat but that's to keep up with the flow of the conversation. Here, carefully constructed sentences are more appreciated. |
I use the OMG-oh, my god occasionally
|
yeah, i see relatively little shorthand at tfp.
there are some i think i've seen fairly often though btw = by the way imo = in my opinion imho = in my humble opinion so = signifigant other bf = boyfriend gf = girlfriend |

OMFGROTLFLMMFAOIHAYIHJ is used quite often.
Oh My Fucking God Rolling On The Floor Laughing My Mother Fucking Ass Off In Hysterics At Your Hilarious Joke. |
I have to say, I've been an internet/chat junky for YEARS, and I've never heard that one. I prefer acronyms i can spell. :P
|
or perhaps my fave, wtfomg!
|
IIRC= If I recall correctly
AFAIK=As far as I know IANAL=I am not a lawyer OTOH=on the other hand |
iinm, if i'm not mistaken
sfw (duh) meaning Safe for work WTF - what the f...? atm - at the moment thats all i can think of atm =) |
obviously for chat purposes
brb = be right back ggp = gotta go pee |
Sometimes people use this one which I am not fond of
ttyl - talk to you later |
There's also 'stfu' for shut the fuck up. I don't know anyone who uses it in any way other than to mock the people who apparently say it seriously.
There are hundreds of little acronyms out there. Like Roy G Biv, if you wanted to tell the message board you were describing the rainbow. |
thanks for the education
|
let's not forget MILF (mother i'd like to fuck)
