What Internet Shorthand Do You Use Most?

[Robb]

This is, of course, a poll especially for us old folks who remember Usenet before it was just for porn...

For me, lately, it's been IIRC (If I Recall Correctly).

Of course, that's mostly because of my advancing age, and the onset of (to use a non-internet acronym) C.R.S. (Can't Remember Sh*t) :)

[Caution]

1. you forgot IANAL, a very popular one here n/t

[Fenris]

4. What the hell does that mean?

:shrug:

[mac56]

5. IANAL = "I Am Not A Lawyer"

But I think it should add BIPOOTV = "But I Play One On TV".

[FloridaPat]

2. What does LOL stand for? Lots of Luck?

[ScreamingMeemie]

3. laughing out loud, lots of laughs, or sometimes I have seen it used for

lots of love.

6. My personal downfall

was when some British friends turned me onto FFS. For F*ck's Sake. Comes in altogether too handy for it's own good and since it's sparsely known in these parts, I'm constantly having to explain myself. DUers, you've been warned! :)
