Can You Talk the Talk?

October 6, 2008 Posted by jennjennnbubba

Recently, in October's All You magazine, I ran across an insert about internet lingo. You know, like chat shorthand "OMG" type charachters. After reading the list, I was a little confused. I consider myself fluent in internet chatting and computer savvy but some of these codes I have never seen before. So I clipped it out and decided to make a quiz out of it.

So do you think you can talk to talk?

Below are the acronyms - chose the correct explaination of the acronym. Good Luck.

And a special thanks to Sweetpeabrina for helping with some of the choices!
