I don't really use these two.  My DD (haha) and I play a game where she tries to guess what they all mean and these were some of the ones that stumped her.

Mar. 25, 2007 at 1:35 PM LOL! I have been wondering what the heck lmao meant! I couldn't figure it out but because everyone used it I wasn't about to sound like the dumb one. As for DH, I figured it meant darling husband since everyone was using it instead of "hubby." Thanks for this post. And I just looked at that link that mommy_of_two posted. LOL! There are so many ways to throw people off. LOL! I'm gonna have some fun on IM tonite! LOL!
