    Are you addicted?

    Hi, the joke is back!

    Tech Support calls "You" for help.

    Someone at work tells you a joke and you say LOL

    When someone says "What did you say?" you reply "Scroll up!"

    You have to get a second phone line just so you can call Domino's

    You have to be pried from your computer with the Jaws-of-Life

    You have a vanity car tag with your screen name on it

    You no longer type with proper punctuation, capitalization, or complete sentences .

    You begin to say heh heh heh instead of laughing

    You know more about your online friends daily routines than you do your own family's.

    You lie to others about your time online and when they complain

    You keep begging your friends to get an account so "we can hang out"

    You meet people from the Internet in public and have no idea what their real name is, so you call them by their screen name

    That your phone was busy you claim it was off the hook

    You have an identity crisis if someone else is using an s/n close to your own

    You would rather tell people your bloodshot eyes are from partying too much instead of the truth (all night online)

    You marry your cyber boyfriend and you both sit at your own computers and chat to each other every night from across the room

    You type messages to people while you are on the phone with them at the same time

    You won't work at a job that doesn't have a modem involved

    You sign on and immediately get 10 messages from people who have you on their buddy lists

    You look at an annoying person off-line and wish you had your ignore button handy

    You have withdrawals if you are away from the puter for more than a few hours

    You use Internet lingo in everyday life (if you still have one...hehehe)

    Your buddy list has over 100 people on it

    You wake up in the morning and the first thing you do is get on-line before you have your first cup of coffee

    You wait 6 hours online for a certain "special" person to sign on

    You don't know where the time has gone

    You end sentences with three (or more) periods while writing letters in pen/pencil.

    Your relationship online has gone farther than any real one you have had

    You get up at 2am to go the bathroom but go turn on your computer instead

    You don't even notice anymore when someone has a typo

    When you enter a room and 23 people greet you with {{{Hugs}}} or ***Kisses***

    You stop typing whole words and use things like ppl, dunno and lemme

    Your voicemail/answering machine message is "BRB, leave your s/n and I will TTYL"

    You type faster than you think

    Being called a newbie is a *MAJOR* insult

    You are on the phone for a min. and need to do something else you say "BRB" or "BBL"

    You spend at least 30 minutes making sure you say good-bye to everyone in a chat room

    and the staying for 30 minutes to say goodbye to everyone is so totally true!

    The one that hit me the most was the "You have an identity crisis if someone else is using an s/n close to your own " that was totally true for me back in my FPS or MMORPG days....

    Dear Dee

    I’m only a simple Swede and deaf on my both ears and my native language is Swedish. Every time I will write a message is a challenge for me but a nice such. The English abbreviation is unknown for me and I don’t know if all others in this forum know what every abbreviations means.

    Please, tell me the full words for following shortenings:

    ROTFLMSO
    ISTR
    IMNSHO
    IOW
    FWIW

    Your explanation should be highly appreciated.

    Cheers
    Lagu :? ;)

    IOW = In Other Words

    ISTR = Is That Real





    Challenge me, or correct me, but don't ask me to die quietly.
