Title: Hello World!
Post by: burnOUT on September 14, 2003, 03:14:20 AM
Hey there.  Nothing like having your computer hacked to get you to do a little research and start learnin'.  I stumbled on this site and thought I'd join up and get to know some new people and maybe accidentally trip over a smart piece of info every now and then.

So, happy to meet everyone - you'll have to excuse the fact that I don't know all the lingo.  I'm an old folk compared to most of you geeks and a relative computer moron - so go easy and just call me grandma.

Do we have any G33k to Granny translators out there??  What the heck did Binoboy say?  Should I be offended, turned on, frightened, amused, or all of the above?

Yes, ind33d you d0.

Sorry.

The jist of Bino's meaning was: "Oh my f**king God, LOL (Laugh Out Loud)! (Many Exclamations)."

Hope that'll help for future translations. Welcome, again.  :wink:

Many exclamations and a multitude of ones (and sometimes twos) typically indicate a show of spontaneously-combustive excitement.
