It has come to my attention that not everyone keeps up with the latest in text typing! So, in order to cater for all our Shackers or "Shackeroonies" as Olly called us earlier (tut) shall we compile a basic dictionary here?

It could also be used to help with the US/UK differences in uses of English.

I'll start us off

LOL - Laugh out loud

ROFL - Roll on the floor laughing

LMAO - Laughing my a*** off

L337 - "Leet" - Elite

it pwns - "owns"/is a work of sheer genius/it rules

LOTR - Lord of the Rings

FOTR - Fellowship of the Ring

TTT or TT - The Two Towers

ROTK - Return of the King

(to any of the above write U at the end to refer to the update set of cards from Topps)

HP - Harry Potter

PoA - Prisoner of Azkaban

PoAU - Prisoner of Azkaban Update

PS - Philosopher's Stone (Sorcerers for you US people!)

CoS - Chamber of secrets

GoF - Goblet of Fire

OotP - Order of the Phoenix

If it's typed by Roz - y u o means you Wink (or uyo for FTY Wink)

PM - Private message

I can't think of any more now!

There's no shame in asking here either Cheesy - I shall be sure to do it!

MPC means Richard... commonly used by mistake even by people who speak to Richard... almost daily!
