I think I may very well have found the stupidest thing ever. http://www.aim.com/acronyms.adp I love how the link to that page says you need to get "Down with it and learn the lingo". As a member of this large community, I felt obligated to post this in hopes of a chuckle. I mean honestly, I've never heard of half of these, and I feel stupider just reading this page. On a second note, why do people use AIM? This junks so annoying and I haven't even gotten it downloaded yet. |

I used to use AIM in the past, but stopped for a year after most of my friends there left. The problem with that page is that acronyms aren't the only way to shorten things. |

Do people get paid to make these up? If someone starts talking to me in letters they get blocked, I can't be doing with decoding messages that turn out to be shorter than the slang. :blink: |

I use AIM simply because everyone else did. Do I use their client? God no. And that list is hilarious. I'm willing to bet they could track every message ever sent and half those wouldn't even show up as typos. If you want real acronyms just look 'em up at urbandicitionary. |

It takes me longer to remember what half of them mean that it would to type it out regularly. :blink: Really reminds me of watching Idiocracy. |

I use AIM only because most of my friends do. It was probably more popular than MSN messenger, a few years ago. Some of those acronyms are just absurd though. Indeed it was a good laugh. |

I think i've seen that before. BTDTGTTSAWIO Been there done that got the tee-shirt and wore it out. I'd remember a new random password faster than that any day. I think they actually took time to make these up and see if they could get popular. |

Ugh, I'm using trillian at the moment for AIM. I hate Trillian so much because it has a problem adding contacts for MSN. Sometimes it will work and other times it won't. And sometimes, when you go back to MSN, your contacts you added on trillian won't be there. Grr Trillian. How I used to love thee for IRC too before I found that Opera has a built in IRC thing. |

You're only saying that because you haven't tried Pidgin. Admit it!

I use that too. For buzzing and chat and doodling and stuff. But I still like being able to change my background color. |
