Title: terminology
Post by: dontblameyoko on February 23, 2010, 02:20:58 AM
I'm guessing "spags" refers to members of this forum (please correct me if i'm wrong), but what does ITT stand for? and what does "lail" mean?

I always took 'lail' to be a portmanteau of 'lol' and 'fail'

eta:
also there are about two or three threads around the place explaining the term spag

Since the thread is already up, what does "ETA" stand for, besides "Estimated Time of Arrival"? I keep seeing it when people appear to have edited their posts.

Spags = Short for spaggots
ITT = In This Thread
LAIL = Something that is unintentionally funny, I am actually the one who started using it here and it's from a movie made by the CKY guys where Raab plays a retarded guy that keeps saying "lail". The fact that it's sounds like lol and fail is just a coincidence, however it pretty much is lol + fail.
ETA = Estimated Time of Arrival.
