One of my new year resolutions is to limit the 1337 speak IRL. lol

I and a couple of mates have found ourselves saying LOL/FTW/FTL/PMSL/IDK/TBH etc etc for a long time now. Was funny at first. As you say though, even the mags/media mention it now - although they refer to it as txt tlk. 'FAIL IMHO' colongay

lol

L14MNP

lmao stalker!

It's kind of working, but I feel I come across as ignorant or p!ssed off if I don't include 'l0l' at the end of every sentence when texting/online. No-one else feel the same?

The internet has changed us all.

FML. lol

Words and phrases have been added to the english language ever since it evolved. Getting annoyed about new words and phrases being used too much is a bit laughable really. No one got annoyed by the word 'cool' or 'wicked' or 'sick' etc. So why get annoyed about the word 'Fail'?

as i previously said fail is fine,its ftw ftl and suchlike that i find gay as they arent even words,or phrases that you would normally use eg-" i have FAILED my driving test"-whats wrong with that??
Or eg-"nah i dont like coca cola-pepsi for the win"= Ghayhat

To be honest, listening to the plebs attempt to speak to each other outside the chinese earlier this evening, people saying 'for the win' is at least strung together properly and understandable lol

Isn't FTW etc a take on broken English? That's what I have always assumed, cos as Andy says it makes zero sense.

It's similar to the signage etc that you would see on Engrish.com or crap Jap/Chinese translations I have seen before, 'go fight win!' etc. lol

I love her to pieces but I feel so sorry for any kids her and her partner have. They're both rather simple and love their 'puters and the Xbox. I was actually speaking to her the other day and she was telling me about some uni work she'd done and she'd actually counted the words herself rather then use word count as she hadn't realised that it counts it for you....this is the 2nd or 3rd time she'd done this lol Bless her.

Don't confuse computer illiteracy with stupidity - I've seen perfectly sensible/intelligent people go all to pot when it comes to computers, most are scared they'll break something so don't go investigating for options or things to tick etc. Me, I don't care, I'll happily break something whilst trying to fix it (and regularly do) :d

She can use a computer fine.. if she's not on her computer she'll be on the Xbox using the chat and stuff on there. She just assumed that word count meant something completely different lol I could understand doing it once but forgetting two or three times...especially as her fella works with computers. Like I said she can be a bit simple sometimes...at christmas there was a whole conversation going on her facebook about how she'd written she was "raping presents" and had no clue why anyone found that funny lol She's lovely though. :d


I think the "rawr bare, bare safe" is just a "chav" thing. My brother is a typical chav.
