internet shorthand

Def: the way lazy people type for IMs, texting, email, and other forms of cryptic writing

I just rather call it that because not everyone is 31337

I feel like no one respects the English language anymore, just by using internet shorthand like: omg, wtf, n00b, lol, srsly stfu, ttyl, etc.

Shorthand

Two definitions.

1. Used by literate writers in the real world for note taking, mostly at school or college. Usually just abbreviated forms of words, they also can use symbols or different pieces of text that symbolize longer parts of text. Usually shorthand is easier to be read by the writer, for all shorthand is unique to its user. Some abbreviate different things.

2. Used by illiterate noobs online. they speak with no grammar, and make no sense. They cannot seem to spell, and seem to randomly press keys.

1. Need to go to the stor to by food. An i need sum fud.

2. "LoLz, TAht Iz ZO Fuunneh! I LUvz ity@! LA0ol!"
"Wtf? What are you saying?"
"LoLZ N0)B! You GheySX!1 Im Spekkin ShrtHAd!"
"That isnt shorthand nubtard. This is."
"NOeZ! Tis ISs ShrtNd!"
" Shut up."

showtyme

this word is for people that don't know how to spell or make music. if you make a "rap" group using this as your name you're clearly mentally retarded and the fact of the matter is you need to realize you are a grown up and that being from west view, you do not classify as "ghetto". Its pathetic how you can call out women also because you gotta be a real hard ass if you can talk shit on a girl...... furthermore if this is the name of your "production" company you might wanna call it quits cause my guess is that your dad touches you too much and that is the reason you lash out on other people because of how insecure you truly are.....

1st person: hey man, my retarded friend's new nick name is, "showtyme."
2nd person:
He should probably go run into oncoming traffic....

Ha Shorthand

Ha shorthand is a method for conveying different discrete magnitudes of amusement or laughter. It is derived from haha, and can be communicated with only 3 characters.

1Ha == Ha
2Ha == Haha
3Ha ==Hahaha
Etc..

Pablo Escobar: Knock Knock.
El Chapo: Who’s there?
Pablo Escobar: Mustache.
El Chapo: Mustache who?
Pablo Escobar: I mustache you a question, but I’ll shave it for later.
El Chapo: 4ha
Pablo Escobar: Great use of ha shorthand!

Post Showtime Depression

The period post Showtime when you miss the amazing people you have been on stage with for many nights and so you remain is a sad sombre state waiting till the next year's show is ready to be written.

Man the Post Showtime Depression hits hard
