lmao, lmfao, but most of all: rofl. I don't think it happens often enough to warrant it's own acronym, and I can't remember the last time I actually 'Rolled On the Floor Laughing' after reading a comment online.

(not sure if these count as words)

Of course, in my native NY, we'd have said "My fodder, my mudder 'n' my brudder are goin' ta da city"
I know a few New Yorkers who say "Can you check the Earl under the hood"?

Oh, several grate-inducing words come to mind: I absolutely hate when some yomo (yo-yo moron) says axe for ask. How can you say "ass" or "kuh" and can't say ass-k? When anyone says they axed someone....I always reply, "Daaam! That must've hurt!" Most of the time, they're not amused. I am.
Also, NUCLEAR is pronounced as new-clear. Just think of NEW CLEAR and you've got nuclear! NOT NEW KEY LERR, MORONS! And, yeah, don't call me sweetie.....especially you, friends of mine. Sweetie is a term of endearment for children and lovers....which I am neither to any of my gal-pals, thankyewverimuch. It's almost demeaning, you know? Don't use a diminutive on an adult, SWEETIE!!
