~ I am a relatively new member so I'm sorry if this is old news ~ But what in the heck do the following abbreviations mean?
And what are some helpful A2K abbreviations for us new kids on the block to learn and become familar with. Many thanks in advance!

ROTFLMAO

IMO

BTW
ROTFLMAO = rolling on the floor laughing my ass off
IMO = In my opinion (variation: IMHO, in my humble opinion)
BTW = By the way
Hope that helps.
Oh my God! I am ROTFLMAO for sure! You have no idea - you've helped me tremendously! I've been reading posts and now they make more sense! Whew!
Thank you cavfancier! Hey, is the cav short for caviar?
'cavfancier' has a double meaning. I am a chef, and love caviar (Osetra please, no overpriced Beluga), and I also own a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who is very loved in our house. I can't imagine having any other breed of dog.
Pssst...his picture is in the gallery....
Ignore all the cats. He is currently on page 8 in the pet photo section.
Alright, I am going to ignore all the cats (I'll try, but its very doubtful) and go directly to page 8! :wink:
~ cav ~ his expression is priceless! What a MAJOR cutie pie! He looks like he's saying, "what do you want now dad, can't you see I'm purrrfect!"

~ psssst...I made a note under his picture. :wink:
cav
Just had to go to page 8 & have another look.
Yep, still beautiful!
I always was unsure of LOL. Does it mean '
:laughh out loud" or "lots of Love"
Im so confused
I always thought LOL meant "Let's ogle Laura" I always looked around for this mysterious Laura, but never saw her.
"Laugh out loud" The whole damn thing is beginning to make sense.
when i first came on line, i thought LOL meant Land O Lakes.
there are good websites that list the more common Acronyms.
My personal favourite is IMNSHO (in my not so humble opinion). I see that one a lot at my fav site. Lots of people with not humble opinions there.
I thought lol was a very strange version of the 'La!' that Lydia Bennet overuses in Pride and Prejudice, because-- the first time that I went online, the first person I spoke to was exactly like her...
... this .... click is a good source for translating those acronyms into English.
BRB used to puzzle me quite a bit.
Yikes! No clue, but I can make something up, although that would hardly be helpful.
Sorry to completely filibuster, but Adirondacks... hearing that always reminds me of the Bell Jar, because of that asshole Buddy Willard's being in a sanitorium there.
His having TB is almost as downright Vile as some of the expressions that you've come out with.
BBBJ means 'bare back blow job', an-- untasteful act-- without a condom.
DATY-- means 'Dine at the Y'-- which means 'give someone cunnilingus.' Less blase' than the first one, then...
NMM- means Nude Mutual Massage; which is today's idea of a euphemism for... mutual oral stimulation.
Who the hell do you associate with, MCG?!
I think the better question is who do YOU associate with drom?? You knew what they meant!
Holy mackeral, I'm starting to wonder too drom. Not like it would be out of character for a conservative though.
Dang, fishin' got the better joke in before me....
