Stupid noob question!

Hi all,
What does IMO mean!?

 

Hi Kirk


In My Opinion

 

Imo = In my opinion (usually) Imho= In my humble opinion.

EMAIL ABBREVIATIONS AND LINGO

People who use the Internet and email extensively have developed a
vocabulary of abbreviations for commonly used phrases and even
symbols for facial expressions. There is also "pseudo-formatting"
of plain text: asterisks indicate *italic* or *bold text* (emphasis)
and underscores suggest _underlined text_.

The following is a collection of email abbreviations that have been
used by Continuum List subscribers.


COMMONLY USED:
--------------

CC or TCC - The Continuum Concept. Also, CC used as an adjective
might be thought of as "continuum-correct", i.e., in accord with
the principles of The Continuum Concept.

AP - attachment parenting (similar to CC parenting)

BTW - by the way

dh/dw/dd/ds - a reference to members of one's immediately family:
dear husband, dear wife, dear daughter, dear son (etc.)

FYI - for your information

e.g. - "for example" (from the Latin *exempli gratia*)

i.e. - "that is" or "in other words" (from the Latin *id est*)

IYKWIM - if you know what I mean
KWIM? - know what I mean?

IMO - in my opinion
IMHO - in my humble opinion
IMNSHO - in my not-so-humble opinion

JL - Jean Liedloff, author of The Continuum Concept

LCN - the Liedloff Continuum Network

LLL - La Leche League (international breastfeeding support
organization)

LOL - laugh out loud

TCC - The Continuum Concept (see "CC" above)

TCS - Taking Children Seriously, an organization that promotes a
philosophy of "non-coercive" parenting and education. TCS has its
own definition of coercion, which can be found at their website.
(http://www.tcs.ac) Several members of the Continuum list have
tried to integrate TCS with TCC.

Thanks guys!

 

Let me demonstrate how you can use it Kirk Like this......

Later this month Arsenal are gonna kick MUFC's butt IMO *grins*

Welcome to MG Kirk...everyone is great here and very supportive...especially when your footie team lose

 

Give it a rest Lev, I'm popping down to the Theatre of Dreams tonight to watch us stuff Chelsea.

How unusual is that? a United fan who lives within a mile of the ground, I can actually see it from my bedroom window, but then I am on the 14th floor

As for Arsenal, didn't they used to be somebody?

 

HAHA...I knew I could rattle somebody's cage with that post....MU fans are so easy to wind up

Isn't it cheaper just to watch it from your bedroom?

Gunners are gunner get you

 

I just got back from united and chelsea now (and yes I do live in Manchester!) and IMO chelsea are the worst side to the win the title for years! Dont have the football ability of united or the gooners! Thats just IMHO!

 

"IG" or I'm gutted. In fact that's all I want to say.

 

Personally, I prefer rugby, all the violence is on the pitch, not in the crowd

Hope there are no Everton fans around, stuffed 7-0 by Arsenal

 

Way to go Gunners *grins*
