Internet Abbreviations In Lifes Conversations

Speaking along the lines of Andy's investigation of the ellipses.
I find that I myself am guilty of using the words dot dot dot to explain my ellipses usage.
What other words do we shorten or use from the internet or computer in every day life conversations, sometimes i find myself saying "FYI" or "LOL", although strangely enough I never say "BRB" in every day life, I'd be more likely to say "be right back"
Are we all just turning into computers, will eventually we go up to someone in a club and ask "ASL?"

I stole these questions...

1) Do you like your birth-name? Why?

2) If you could change your name to anything else, what would it be?

3) What names would you consider giving your children?

4) If you had a band, what would you name it, and why?

5) Is there a name that you completely hate? Why?

Dilemma

You find an envelope on the ground while walking to the train station, you pick it up (for reasons unknown) and you find that it has $3,000 CASH inside, there's a letter inside:

Dear James,
Here's the money I owe you for the stroller I borrowed from you, thanks for being so helpful, times are hard with the new baby. Give me a call, speak soon.
Thanks again
Love,
Helen

The envelope has an address on it.
Do you:
A) Take the money and chuck the envelope in the bin... Finders keepers.
B) Take the money and put the letter in the envelope and post... Without the cash.
C) Put the money and letter in the envelope and post... You'd feel bad if you didn't.
D) Other (please describe).

MOVIE REVIEW: The Island

During the mid-21st Century the world experienced an ecological disaster, those who survived the contamination are sent to a high monitored and controlled compound. It's there they live out their days hoping to win the lottery.
The lottery is the only way out of the compound, each time someone wins the lottery they get to go to 'The Island', the last uncontaminated spot in the world.
Like every other resident of the compound Lincoln Six-Echo is waiting for his chance to win, but after having repeated nightmares, he starts to question all the formality and restrictions of his life at the compound.
When Lincoln Six-Echo stumbles across the truth behind 'The Island' he and his friend Jordan Two-Delta make an escape from the institute, the fight is then on to expose the compound for what it really is, but also more importantly because they know the truth, they are fighting for their lives.

Fairfield's Crazy Church People

So I was down in Fairfield yesterday. Not the best place to be in Sydney but I had to go to the bank, and it was either Fairfield or Parramatta... And there was no way during this Christmas Season I would be able to get into Parramatta without hurting myself or others trying to find a parking spot.
So I was in Fairfield, walking to the bank, and I passed some clinic which had a whole heap of crazy (I'm guessing Churchie) people out the front with signs like: "Stop abortion", "You murderer".
I merely walked past right in front of them, none of them were saying anything, just standing there with their professionally printed freak signs in the hot summer sun.
On my way back from the bank I came across three policemen and one policewoman (starting to sound like a bad joke now aint it), anyway for some reason this crowd of freaks with a mission make anyone feel bad about getting rid of an unwanted fetus. And the fact that they need the police there to make suretheres no riots.

Dear Freaky/Crazy Church People,
I thought your god was all about not forcing
his beliefs and ideas on people?
Should you not be asking yourself, what would
Jesus do?
Also standing out in the hot hot hot Fairfield
sun is crazy, I hope you wore sunscreen.
Thanks for ruining my first field trip into a
near by town/city.
Yours truly
Jac
P.S. Who was the hot guy holding the
'STOP' poster... is he single?
