Put it in spoilers, please.

Oh, noes, George R. R. Martin wrote five books of spoilers!

Put it in spoilers, please.

No spoiler tags on this board, AFAIK

Just got halfway through re-watching the first two seasons while my dear kitties keep throwing Book 5 down from the shelf (someone should have told GRRM to name it A Dance With Cats). And of course I wept again at certain scenes despite knowing them in advance, so never mind the spoilers. Will get through season 2 and S3E1 before the end of this week, which means it's gonna be a good week. [Had enough shitty ones recently. Where's Jaqen H'ghar when you need him...]

 

[xptrinity]

Never mind the spelling error...

That is quite weak, actually. Most of the people around here do all that with the many variations of the sound "e" (I think "æ" sound in English would be the vocal counterpart) - difference in tone, length, stress etc. Still does the job.

But we have quite a unique accent in here, in many ways quite different from the Serbian language itself, sooo...

Wow, the prize for cutting the bullshit most efficiently goes to you guys without dispute!

We have "опа" (opa), which goes for pretty much anything, depending on the intonation, the context and the accent.

Well, in theory... in reality, even with that simple sound, people are still full of shit.
I mean, look at me.

That's present here too. "Opa", "ou", "e", "a", "o" and more modern "woah", but that still has a fairly limited use...

I'm just waiting for internet abbreviations to be fully incorporated into everyday speech, and then I'll guess my native language goodbye.

ОМГ (OMG) is already fairly popular here. :Spin:

OMG, LoL, Wtf, Rofl etc.
Mostly among kids and teenage folks aka retards of my age, but it's present. I would be lying if I'd say I had never used those myself.

 

[Eurynome]

Lol and OMG I've heard here, too, and an increasingly common Finnish one (I've caught myself using it, too) is VMP.

And back to a couple of familiar characters...
