Stupid Abreviations???

Recommended Posts

I have a question, why do people say stupid random things, like:

 

0mfgz!! What's the Z about?

 

Lolz, again, the Z?

 

Nub, someone tell me what this means... noob I'm guessing?

 

Slay, does it hurt to add er?

 

Bump, People say "Bump up my post" Well, you can't use the same word, say "Bring up my post" It's basic English.

 

Soz, WTF did that come from?

 

And what's Hippy flip skips? Someone said that on X-Box live, lol, no idea what in the hell it means.

 

 

 

Now, why do people says stupid things like that?

 

For those who say them, don't say they look cool, because they look stupid... Make you look 10 years old :wall:

Leetspeak is lame and I agree that it makes people look rather immature. The problem is that runescape has a very limited chat LENGTH function. You can't say complete sentences that are even slightly long. Runescape is the only place that you will find me using any sort of abbreviation on purpose due to the fact that I don't want to hit enter repeatedly and spam up our chatboxes.

 

 

 

Edit: Dang, I replied to one of those idiotic sig people. You talk about stupid yet you have that as a sig. :roll: Wow.

I have to go for a bit so I can't reply again but your defense for that stupid sig is the same defense for their stupid english i.e. you both think you are doing something "cool/daring/hip/obnoxious" but you are actually making yourself look like a moron. Think about it. :wink:

 

 

 

P.S. I did not call you a moron. Read it again if you think that I did.

Just mad because you didn't PK a Green Phat in the outskirts of

 

Falador :twisted: Now stop flaming, or get off.

 

 

 

You asked a question and recieved an answer. The reasons that make you think your sig is cool are the same reasons that leetspeak is cool. I am not flaming you or him at this moment. I am simply stating a fact and an answer to your question.

Owned. And no one is jealous of duriel, considering he doesn't have that party hat anymore because HES BANNED. Oh, im jealous because he exploited a bug and got PUNISHED for it. Think what you want, I'm pretty sure if you used common sense you could have figured out the answer yourself.

Lazyness, ignorance, leet speak. Those are the reasons for it.

 

 

 

I personally hate when people say "sell run skimmy". Its not just once, they say the same thing, with same terrible grammar and everything else over, and over. I hate it!! :wall:

I dunno, in a way they're all kind of stupid. "LOL" is used to respond to anything remotely funny, even if it wasn't funny enough to make you lol for real. And on the occasion that someone is legitimately L-ing O L, they are more likely to respond with "rofl" or "lmao." But for some reason I use it anyway.

Kk - OK...

 

 

 

Yes, this long word consists of two letters, and it's completely understandable that people find it too hard to move their finger from the "K" key.

 

 

 

- Oh wait, it's not! #-o

You're accusing me of bigotry, how ironic. It's a nice attempt at argument, but your responses are facile and asinine, if not diatribe. Who's arrogant now?

Alot of it comes from the pk'ers around this forum! And they're a rushed bunch of people, for obvious reasons, so abbreviating words is nothing new to them, or anyone around here! :) :wink:

ive always said "mk" and for some reason this confuses a lot of people. :P

 

 

 

i agree that people that abbriviate unnecessary (sp?) words annoy me. is it going to kill you to type out "thank you" instead of "ty". i think not. :-w

perhaps people enjoy being portrayed as an 8-10 year old. contributes to the anonimity of the internet and the fun of gaming \'

Notices "Lobbies" is only one character shorter than just "Lobsters"?

 

 

 

Anyway, I don't use "Lol" or "Lmao" or "Rofl" or "Lmmfaoth" or "Lmmfhothwabbbibs", or even, my favorite,

 

"Lmmfaothysangfywabpymgtcysah".

 

 

 

When I think something is funny, i just say so.

mk isnt that weird isn't it? The school psych in southpark also says mk (mkay...) \'

I was once at the airport with my friends in California, had to go "potty" really bad, and just pissed my pants in the middle of the terminal. (All the cool kids piss in their pants, right?)

Isn't that because (speaking frmo experience, i see this behaviour a lot more on free servers) that people tend to be aged 8 - 10? :P
