    WTF = What The Fu<k?
    ETA = Eat Turds A$$hole (just made that one up atm tbh lol lmao omg stfu! :p)

    ...which leads to the other terms:

    STFU = Shut The Fu<k Up
    LMAO = Laughing My Ass Off

    You sometimes see things like LMFOAROFLOLOLHAHAHAHAHA
    Which does not strictly make sense but is to convey an intense laughter fit (probably).

    g3y, 1337,f4g, f43g etc....

    you will be able to read "1337" speak by simply substituting the following letters:

    1 = L
    3 = E
    4 = A
    7 = T
    0 = O

    Thus the preceding terms become Gey, Leet, fag, which are nerd terms. In other words dont use them unless you want to join them or to be sarcastic or a gey faeg :D

    Because WE ARE.

    Does this mean we have to start making derogatory remarks about peoples' supposed sexual orientation whenever we don't agree with them?

    Where people forget what the thread was about and hurl burning insults at eachother until someone lays the smack down with a big spiky mod stick.

    Thought you might find these useful:

    acronyms

    1337 5P34k

    try not to ever use l33t speak - it's just plain fuqing annoying and to be honest, a bit pathetic.

    It's perfectly acceptable to use it to make fun of people who take it seriously.

    This thread got really good.

    that |_337 speak stuff is well funny.
    w00t - Derived from 'hoot', this is defined as 'yay', it can be used, for example, upon victory or, possibly, the release and procurement of a new video card.

    i like the video card bit.
