David Posted February 8, 2007 Author Share Posted February 8, 2007 "Read the bloody manual". It appeared in a thread about Wanadoo live boxes. I have actually censored it as the original post was "RTFM".David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted February 8, 2007 Author Share Posted February 8, 2007 Thanks for that brilliant post Teamedup. I can now see a rash of posting using all the abbreviations shown there.What about a competition for the post with the most abbreviations?David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5-element Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 I spent months on a (predominantly American) forum, before I finally sussed out what LOL means. Before the penny dropped, I thought it means "lots of love", and was marvelling at how friendly they are, those Americans, sending little bits of love here and there to everyone....
