A conversation at work with Adam
[12:15 PM] Adam Morse: I now understand why you say FAIL all the time: http://www.slate.com/id/2202262/?GT1=38001
[12:16 PM] Doug: that is an epic win
[12:17 PM] Doug: http://failblog.org/
[12:17 PM] Adam Morse: yeah, looking at it right now
[12:17 PM] Adam Morse: now whats with epic win?
[12:18 PM] Adam Morse: oh
[12:19 PM] Adam Morse: the youtube videos on that failblog site don’t work
[12:19 PM] Adam Morse: they play 2 seconds and then stop
[12:19 PM] Doug: mine work
[12:19 PM] Doug: your inet fails
[12:20 PM] Adam Morse: you EPIC FAIL
[12:20 PM] Doug: my inet is ftw
[12:20 PM] Adam Morse: this slang crap is just crap
[12:20 PM] Doug: lolzers
We then had a discussion about why he won’t use lol or LMAO or ROFL in chat. Since he isn’t litterally on the floor laughing, he would rather type out “That’s Funny”
I try to fit in a few internetz words in at work everyday. a few favorites are
noob, ftw, wtf, ftl and every now and then a FFS in an e-mail like
FFS Jim I thought we had that taken care of already.
I am not quite up to lolspeak (link to lolspeak 101) in my e-mails yet, but it’s only a matter of time.

I still don’t know what half the letters to included in this post means. FFS? ftl? kkthxbai? I think I figured out the last one, but you sound like you’re 3 years old when saying it.
