A word used subconsciously by most teenagers, to denote that what they are about to say is probably inaccurate, exaggerated, or estimated; it was thought up on the spot, and while it should be considered, it shouldn't be taken entirely at face value. The word becomes embedded in your vocabulary at around 12 and it takes a lot of thinking to really understand why you say it.
"...and then he banged on for, like, half an hour about God and the Bible and stuff..."
"Sam's such a nerd, he wrote like five pages for his essay."
"He's a lot older than he looks, he's like 60 or something."
"...and then he, like, hurled Ben's shoe up into the tree, and it got stuck. Then Ben went mad on him, he must have like broken his nose or something."

Phrase used to imply that a forum thread is either stupid or pointless and is going to be locked by a forum mod/admin. It's a much cooler way of saying "I bet this thread is gonna be locked soon".
OP: Hey everyone, I thought I'd just bring up something that's been posted several times before...
OP+1: In before the lock! ;
Forum Admin: I'm locking this thread because its stupid and pointless and has been brought up several times before.

1) A letter that hoards of businesses and websites put in front of their names and products to make them sound cool. The trend was started by Apple Inc. and since then countless companies have jumped on the bandwagon and done the same thing.
2) A letter which, when placed in front of any word, indicates the online version of that thing; regardless of whether the online version actually exists or not.

1) I just went to iGoogle on my iMac and searched for BBC iPlayer but then someone texted my iPhone to tell to me that iMesh have been taken down off the web.

"And that's the end of that."
Term is mainly used in forums and instant messaging, to show the source's opinion that what he has just said is the be all/end all truth, he has spoken, and that all further discussion might as well stop.
It can also be spelt /discussion.

Refers to the person who makes the next post after the Original Poster; the very first replier to a forum thread. So called because it's the next one on from OP.
The pattern can go on for as long as you like, OP+2, OP+3 etc. but when it gets too high to interpret at glance, it's probably not worth using.
