Ok, I'm a little new to this whole online abbreviaion and all the code letters and numbers and stuff. I have finally jumped on the band wagon and got aim about a month ago, but I have no idea what people are saying sometimes! lol With theis ROFL's, w/e's, N/P's, LHE$5">}'s, and what not. (I may have made that last one up) Any help or translations would be greatly appreciated.

Internet lingo can be annoying.

We humans do whatever we can to "dumb up" things.

LOL!!!

For the longest time I didn't know what "btw" meant... I was like between...

But for the record btw, means by the way.

Internet lingo is okay, I'm not going to hold it against anyone who uses it.

All of those faces, like the crying face ;_; or the happy face ^_^ are a bit weird. For the longest time I was confused by the O_o face as well.

Is that another internet code only for cool people, or people with way too much time on their hands, or both, or something???

I read in some business magazine article that sending text on mobile phones isn't such a rage in America, but here in Kenya, and mainly due to the cost factor (sms's are cheape than calls, depending), it's all the rage. Then to save on length, and hence money, people decide to put to practice the summary writing skills they acquired in high school English classes. The results are disastrous.
