Online Sayings In Rl
<div class="IPBDescription">do you say "w00t"?</div> I'm increasingly finding I'm using words like "roffle" and "woot" in real life. I even said "ROFLMAO" once <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
My boss hates me saying woot, probably 'cos she has no idea what it means.....
Am I the only one?

Here in the better educated College environment.. whenever something bad happens we say **xx0r! (and no, that isn't haxxor)
w00t is an expression of glee, like "yay!" or "yippeeSkippee!"
pwned, thought difficult to pronounce at first, is also growing in popularity.
I interupted his continuing line by shouting "what the hell did you just say!?"
He explained that "lol" he "slipped out" so i started laughing and put the phone down on him.
Luckily he saw the funny side.
But what does imao mean? I always thought it was "In my arrogant opinion", but it seems to have taken on a different meaning...
It's not "imao," it's "lmao" (or, in caps, LMAO). You may have thought the lowercase 'l' was an uppercase 'I'. It stands for "laughing my a$$ off."
I frequently find myself saying "w00t," ""elite"," and "pwn" (pronounced like "own" with a 'p'), and, to a lesser extent, "lol" and "OMG."
That's like "the Dude" from the Big Lebowski. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
In particular, the one I really, really hate is when people use "lol" like "ha"... So instead of "hahaha" you get "lololol"... its bad enough to see that typed, but if you ever hear it, your head may explode...
The exception to this is of course "r00fles", just cause it sounds so damn funny. :P
scary..
Fookin Irysh!!!
to which my friend immediately responded, 'MY WHOLE BODY IS N00B!!!'
other than that, we have little inside jokes IRL about 'r0x0ring j00r b0x0rz', adding '-z0rz' to the end of every word, and '3y3 4m ub4r l-3-3-t
I have a friend who says 'lol' in real life, although i had to slap-kick him for that one. And i usually tend to think of rofl as 'raw-ful' or 'roh-ful'...thankfully i haven't started saying that yet. I've been tempted to say SUYF before, but luckily i caught myself in time ^_^;;
we have all sorts of fun with l-3-3t sp33k in real life...none of us use it when speaking normally though, usually we just use it when messing around.
