Teacup XXXVIII - Page 13

Everything's an abbreviation here in the United States. It doesn't matter if you're in the government, if you're a student, somewhere in the military, or just some internet e-thug. Abbreviations come at you from all different directions, even from ABOVE!!!!

LOL is a real word in some languages, but LMFAO could never be. BBL and BRB I don't think would be either. ROFL may be a word, but that probably doesn't mean the same thing as ROFL. Whenever I see "Jk" I think Joker from Batman, for some reason. Looks like it'd be his abbreviation.

I would not doubt it if they came up with some abbreviation for "Twilight Rules" like TWIRLZ or something like that. Although I'd personally challenge anyone who said that to a duel.

Some poor soul: "TWIRLZ!!!"

Me: "You disgust me! I challenge you to a duel!" * Pistol whips the poor soul. *

Just kidding, but I think that if you're past the teenage years, Twilight is something that could be more appropriately replaced by something like, I dunno, Lord of the Rings, or even Harry Potter.

Hey, did anyone see the 2012 movie yet?

Which caused quite a bit of confusion when years ago I entered a chat room, saw the 'lol' and thought: 'oh hey, these are all dutch-speaking people!' And then couldn't understand why they answered me in various combinations of '????!?'

BBL is actually the name of an old bank too.

I absolutely LOVE this picture:

The Wounded Angel, by Finnish Symbolist Hugo Simberg. Such genius conveyed on one canvas. It's simply exquisite.

Midge · 11-24-2009, 12:05 AM

Twirlz... That's funny. That reminds me of Tessar's thing about "bein' in ur postz, editin' ur wordz"... that whole thing.

I've never seen this picture, but I have seen this portrayed in a music video I once saw! Let me try and find it in my youtube playlist, because I think it's in there...

EDIT: Found it!

That just gives me visions of giant, WordArt style LOLs falling from the sky while everyone below is screaming and running for cover.

Could be a horror movie, even.

Sure it could: luh-MFOW, rhymes with 'cow.'

I heard ASAP as a word recently. That actually works.

How funny, you read my mind. That was also the music video I immediately envisioned when I set my eyes on that picture!

It's probably just because they both end in "z", actually. I'm not sure you've ever edited MY word[z]. *knocks on wood really quickly*

Bombadillo · 11-24-2009, 10:03 PM

I heard a rodeo announcer say yesterday, "frankly, I was bumtuzzled" about a bull rider's unusual style. It made me LOL at the time. I can't wait till the next time I'm confused by something so I can say "This is so daggum bumtuzzlin'!"

Sounds like Gabby Johnson. <-- Who knows the reference?

Grey_Wolf · 11-25-2009, 01:05 AM

"And we're back on M.O.O.T. 102,2 with the Moots playing this C&C Music Factory tune slightly changed..."

Here is the dome back with the bass
The jam is live in effect and I don't waste time
Off the mic with a dope rhyme jump to the rhythm
Jump jump to the rhythm jump
And I'm here to combine beats and lyrics
To make you shake your pants take a chance
Come on and post guys grab a girl don't wait make the twirl
It's your world and I'm just a squirrel
Trying to get a nut to move your butt to the post floor
So you what's up hands in the air come on say yeah
Everybody over here everybody over there
The crowd is live enough as I pursure this groove
Party people in the house move

Left to right (groove) work me all night
Come on let's post (post post) baby
Let the mooting take control (control control)
Let the rhythm move you

Everybody post now

Pause take a breath and go for yours on my command
Now hit the post floor it's gonna make you post till you bleed
Is that dope enough indeed I paid the price to control the dice
I'm more precise to the point I'm nice
Let the mooting take control of your heart and soul
Unfold your body is free and behold
Post till you can't post till you can't post no more
Get on the floor and get ablow
Then come back and upside down easy now
Let me see you move left to right groove
Work me all night

The mooting is my life
Everybody post now (x3)
Everybody

Come on let's post (post post) baby
Let the mooting take control (control control)
Let the rhythm move you
Post (post post) post
Let the mooting take your soul (soul soul)
Let the rhythm move you

Well, lol in Dutch doesn't exactly means laughing out loud, but it does mean 'fun'. So it comes pretty close.

**Mari** · 11-25-2009, 08:03 AM

Close enough to be confused by all the furriners speaking Dutch

Okay, I'm supposed to go to a 4 hour long symposium in about 10 minutes. Anyone interested in taking my place? >_<

I've heard of "false friends" in languages, but true ones?
