Fanpop Users Alternative chat speak

Many people use "chat speak", not just on Fanpop but everywhere online. Some stalwart (or stodgy) few don't, but even they have slowly gained an awareness of what the abbreviations mean. Do you find yourself depressed that you can see a nonsense interchange like "cya ppl brb" "k ttyl lolz" "cu" and actually know what was meant?
Well, here's an idea for how to cheer yourself up: invent alternative meanings for common chat speak abbreviations! That's right! With just a little imagination, you can turn feelings of ennui and depression into smirks and mirth! Here's some examples: idk stands for "I do karate!" (or "I'm doing Kegels!") cu: stands for "Cro-magnon Underneath!" (or "Crinoline Underwear!") lyk: stands for "Licking Your Knees!" (or "Liking Your Karate!") What other definitions do you have to share? |
