Poll: Do you use internet abbreviations IRL?

[Broady Brio]

Only to make fun of it.

 

[Ibanez887]

I never do, online or in real life, its just annoying

 

[bodyklok]

Only when I'm online. Because otherwise it would be weird.

'no im going down to the shop IRL' doesn't make any sense if you're IRL.

 

[Beffudled Sheep]

I never have and I never will.
It is just too fucking annoying and angers me greatly. I also hurt anyone who says them near me.

 

[annoyinglizardvoice]

Only ironicly (and rarely at that)
I hatemost of them, online or in real life.

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

No, I have a brain instead.

 

[sky14kemea]

No. I almost have a stroke whenever I hear OMG in real life.

same, but replace "I almost have a stroke" with "I beat the crap out of whoever says it" XD

I hate it when someone says "lol" in real life, because they're obviously not laughing out loud.

 

[Clashero]

When I get together with my fellow geeks from deviantART, we use "lol" sarcastically. Someone makes a joke and there's a silence, and somenoe else says "Er... lol?"

 

[Emphraim]

I use lol in real life but nothing else. It's a habit for me and my friends.

 

[JanatUrlich]

I'm a teenage girl and I often hang out with teenage girls. Of course I do!

 

[thebrainiac1]

occasionally I hear someone talking about how they h8 txtspk, and I cant resist a loud and clear ironic LOL.

 

[TheNumber1Zero]

No.

my brother met someone on xbox live who talked like that...through his mic.when my brother told him it was annoying,he started shouting about my brother being lazy for not learning new phrases and such,which is quite a stupid thing to say considering he was the one who was using abbreviated internet lingo instead of the full words.

 

[The_Echo]

I never use them online or offline. It's just stupid.

 

[ActionDan]

I would never use it offline, Even so I only use abbreviations online rarely,I hate it when people (online or offline) say "Haha, Lol" That really gets on my tits.

 

[Doomdiver]

I never use them online or offline. SAVE THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE! TALK (and type) PROPERLY!

 

[RedPandaMan]

Well, the only time I would ever say them outloud is over Ventrillo, and only with the the phrase "AFK". But then again, I am online at the time of saying it, so in response, I would say I don't say them outloud in real life.

 

[Kuchinawa212]

When I make fun of people using the internet. Such as I'm leaving and I say G2G LOLZ U H4Xors R 2 Hard And we all laugh

 

[kaziard]

started doing it sarcastically to make fun of the "n00bhaxx0r5" online and it seems to have stuck with me...
