Surely, this is a sign of internet addiction.
Online I've never been one to use internet acronyms. I sort of avoid using them like the plague. Okay not the plague. But some other highly contagious and deadly disease. Perhaps SARS.
However, I seem to have developed a problem: I use internet acronyms in real life. It started out pretty safely, I told others I would 'brb' when I went to the bathroom, or I'd 'wtf' so I wouldn't have to say the actual words.
But it's gotten to the stage where I will sometimes say 'lol' INSTEAD OF LAUGHING. I know, I'm a freak right?
So I guess I'm looking for some reassurance. Do you use internet acronyms in real life? Which ones? I think in this scenario I'd much rather be a sheep than a loner. =P
