Have you ever said something from the internets(like saying awesomesauce) in a public place and having everyone look at you like you're crazy? I sure have. (It's really bad when the teacher makes you explain where it came from. ;_; )

I've yet to yell out Xa Nauna, but I have said on multiple occasions "marick" and "awesomesauce." As well as "pwn", "valid", "roffle", and "quality." Everyone looks at me strangely. :D
Sometimes I'll say "You got pwned" when I'm playing games, after a tricky boss battle, but nobody seems to hear me or care. If a family member did hear me, I doubt she would understand, but whenever I start rambling off as I play a game on a console in the basement nobody listens, unless my sister is watching.
Sometimes I yell "LOL" and people look at me strangely while I shy away into a corner and silently wish I was dying a quick death.
I have no social life outside the internet and so this isn't a problem for me.
Edit: Except that one Thanksgiving where I said "o_O"
I've said "Lol", "Roffles", "What the hux are you doing?" and "Oh em gee" out loud.
"roffle" "zohmygod" and "valid" are the three I use the most in casual conversation.
I sometimes go, "Hurr! Hurr!" (a sort of laugh from a webcomic, QC)
But I feel cool afterward, though. 8)
Does "I don't get it. :confused: " count? :confused:
Actually no. Yesterday my friend Alexa at work said something about a wallet being Black like her soul. Which is something common in this other chat I go to, so I told her about the internet thing and she preceeded to laugh and say Roflcopter so I was like "What the hell dude!" then she was like "Yeah but you can't lawlz at everything" so I told her that she can just 'ex-dee' at things, after a moment of confusion she started laughing 'cause she caught up with everything going on.
A while back a girl said she'd 'Bee-Arr-Bee' because she had to take something to the other department and I asked her if she said that and she was like "Yeah, the internet's the devil"
Those words will only grow. The internet -is- the devil. :razz:
That reminds me, I say bee are bee as well!
But I say it so much it doesn't actually occur to me that it's internets talk anymore ;_:
I see something stupid funny, I go "Roffle" and one time someone when "Yea that accendent was total rofflecakage" (It was a skateboarding accendent so don't worry ;p)
I've been known to exclaim "roffle waffle" and "huxDee". Few get the first and no one understands the second.
"Oh noes", "ohmahgawd", and "raffle" are common interjections of mockery among my friends and I. :cat:
Roughly 5 years ago, a friend and I were discussing a certain ‘XD,’ which we both experienced at a Final Fantasy site on the internet. Initially, I perceived it as some bizarre European (possibly Dutch) form of punctuation, and he was trying to teach me otherwise. He even went so far as to emulate the text emoticon using an actual face (his own). I got the picture, but I couldn’t help but comment on the size of his nose, which appeared disgustingly large when he tried to squeeze his eyes together and force out the inhuman ‘D’ grin.
Oh, I forgot "Oh noes" was originally from the internet. I say said phrase, oh, near constantly. :D
I say zomg (pronounced, ZOH-EM-GEE), w00t, pwn, leet, uber, and IRL... I think those are the ones I use most frequently. Like on a daily basis. I've been known to say several others on occasion, though.
I don't make an attempt to hide my real-life-leetspeak though. I'm quite proud of it. =P
I've almost said 'awesomesauce' on several occassions. I blame Rye. Also, almost said 'LOL' a couple of times. After that you take a day off the internet.
I say "lol" and "jk" pretty frequently, but never to seriously replace laughing.
I tend to say "Asosome" (saying also some to quickly) and the room going silent.
I've occasionally said "lol" or "Roffle" while laughing. Fortunately, people find it hard to understand my voice at the best of times so they don't notice :D
Lol, lolzors, zomg, rofl, awesomesauce, w00t, pwn, and oh noes! seem to be in my sad repitior of internet words that have somehow trancended to actual speech.
No.
I've been known to say "ftw!"

... no. I speak English when I speak to people. Usually.
I say lol whenever something silly happens :P
I always use LOL, ROFFLE, PWNZOR and OH NOES when I speak to other. Fortunately, they don't care.
So how would someone pronouce "pwns" in real life....I was led to believe that you just says "owns", in which you would be saying "owns" and not "pwns"....
Sometimes I pronouce it "pawns", like I just "pawned" you....
I usually read it as "pown". This is probably not the correct way to read it.
I also say "pown". And I don't believe that there is a correct way to pronounce it. Wikipedia gives several ways to pronounce it, including simply saying "own", but that's just not as geeky. And since I am continually striving to be the geekiest person in the planet, that clearly will not do for me. :choc2:
No, not really. :p I've only almost said 'xD' at something..it was kind of weird..fortunately I only got to say 'ex' :p
Not really, I hardly talk. :p
But that day I was talking to mum and almost said "LoL", Honestly I felt to embarrassed.
I always say "LoL" and "Soz". :bigsmile:
No. No I have not.
I use WTF, but I don't say it in its abbreviated letter form.
Is awesomesauce an internet word? Cause I know weaksauce isn't. I've heard people attach "sauce" to words way before the internet kicked into gear.
I have said, "All your base are belong to us!" and other such sayings from time to time. Few people look at me like I'm on drugs, however.
