Ever wondered what the acronyms like IMHO or ROFL floating around on social networks really mean? Well, not that you need to. But with repeated usage, these terms have now come to have their own connotation, with the way every user or a group of users on Twitter or Facebook act when keying in these acronyms. So, maybe we could have our expansions of some of the most popular shorthands on social networks. And, a sampler could look like this:
1. LOL: Lay, Orkutiya Lay - given the hatred meted out to the so-called Orkutiyas or Orkut lovers who stalk people for 'fraandship', well this is the end to their motive, isn't it?
2. ROFL: Round Off the Frigging Losers - there are many of these 'influencers' on social networks who act as the sentinel of the gates as well. When they bash up an attention-seeker or a trouble-maker, this could surely be a used as a marker.
3.LMAO: Learning Martial Arts Online - everyday in life is a learning experience, so why not every moment of your social networking be a learning experience too? Especially, since martial arts is one of the best survival tactics known to man.
4. KLPD: Kill Landa, Punish Dunga - one is a villain in reel life, the other in real. So, again a bash-up tactic
5. KVLT: Knowledge Voltage, Low Transmission - heavy duty knowledge getting diluted
6. IMHO: Inner Meditation Hose Opening - when the 'spiritual' and 'life-changing' quotes are on an overdrive.
7. ATM: And That's Me - simple answer to repetitive questions on your online/offline persona
8. TWSS: Tender Words, Short Sentences - say good things by using less space on the screen
9. BRB: Boss Right Behind - can be used when in danger
10. PMS: Post Mobile Syndrome - what you suffer from when you are forced to lead an existence without your mobile phone.
As random as the above expansions may sound, remember: there is no bigger order than chaos.
