I think it comes up if you say *sad teenage txt giggle*... At a guess. Yes, "laugh out loud", now becomes... Well that. Sneaky devils! And a relevant car picture.  |

well, no it doesn't. Its a perfectly common internet acronym we've used for centuries since the first steam powered search engines built proudly in Leeds by Newton AltaVista & Mitchell.
I'm wondering which of the other shorthand the grammar nazis will be banning us from using next?
IIRC, AFAIK, ROFL, IBL, IMO, IME
waiting for the humours slights to those of us who dare shorten cubic centimeters to CC or don't say "otto cycle four stroke reciprocating internal combustion engine" in full every time.
I'll probably get a ban for misuse of capitalization and look, look I used and American spelling...
Jesus.

Oh yeah, question one. The writing on the ring means absolutely sod all. Someone said it was something about it being used as a public road part of the year, people like to leave their mark or something.

I heard the writing was tributes to the people that have died on the track... I have know idea where I heard it, I might have even dreamt it. What's worse that lol, is when someone does actually laugh out loud and the say "lol"!!!

I know the management aren't keen on txt spk, but this is just a bit silly. Like, as I've mentioned before, if you wish to write about an 8mm metric thread and type M8, it comes out as old bean  M8 lol |

1989 Peugeot 205. You know, the one that was parked in a ditch on the campsite at RRG'17... the glass is always full. but the ratio of air to water may vary. |
