Fishin', I cheated and used students in the library (who, with my being faculty, were more than willing to help) and a source called the Urban Dictionary, to check that they weren't fooling me. And they weren't.

As for my associates.. they're wide and varied; but, if you've seen my comments on the sex thread, you'll see that none of them are the types who use those sorts of abbreviations. Apart from M. Amis, who wants to kill me. He'd use them, all right.

And you're absolutely right, Cav... we have the next Tory party packaged in one person!

If I knew what they meant, would I have asked?

I wasn't saying that you knew what they meant; I fail to remember any single time that I said such a thing... I said that it's quite amazing-- and amusing-- that someone with such good family values should come into contact with such... non-mainstream... expressions so often that you remembered them!

'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.


Have you ever had a poodle? I've had several and I for one love them and would never have a dog, that wasn't a little poodle. I'm getting a poodle puppy next week. He'll be 8 weeks old! Razz

Miller, I've never had a poodle, but I hear they are nice dogs. We have a very nasty toy poodle in our building, but that may be the exception to the rule. It is a red poodle, and you know what they say about redheads and tempers.

My mini-poodle, the baby, is a black poodle. Seems to be a bit aggressive, but that suits me fine!

~ Many thanks to all the A2K members who made the internet acronyms a fun learning experience!
~ ehBeth ~ Great Site. I hope it will come in handy for those of us who need a little assistance to decipher those long list of acronyms.
~ One of the many things I enjoy about A2K's members, they're always "exposing" me to new information. Shocked Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing :wink:

Ah, I know WITFITS, Cjsha, and for some weird reason, it often makes me laugh.

That was exactly what I was thinking; I was just concerned for McGentrix..

And S&A; 'exposing' is a choice word on this occasion Laughing!

ROFLMAO right now this is hilarious.

The first time I saw that on line was a post of quinn1 after I saw her post it a couple of times I did believe she made it up and that it was her very own acronym. Kindly quinn1 clued me in re this on line jingo.

I heard about some random person to-day, who-- before 'falling in love--' asks for an e-mail and, if they have any emoticons or if they overuse abbreviations, they don't go any further due to their 'should being able to express themselves in their own words!'

I don't know how to react to love over due to emoticons.

I never saw that; but you have much more experience in this game, so I believe you.

What about:

"Hey babe..."

"Yeah, I can match you."

"Let's have a few drinks."

"Cool. Hey buddy, are you telling me you have no money?"

Brilliant! I thought that it had something to do with a prostitute, three Tequila bottles and the company expenses account Laughing!
