IMO & IMHO
 
I've been researching my upcoming trip to Europe for the past 10 months or so and I often see IMO & IMHO as abbreviations and don't know what they mean. Can someone please inform me?

Linda Jul 18th, 2001 04:15 PM

IMO = In My Opinion <BR>IMHO = In My Humble Opinion <BR> <BR>Hope that helps.

anne Jul 18th, 2001 04:18 PM

IMO = In My Opinion <BR>IMHO = In My Humble Opinion <BR> <BR>Never sure why the humble is inserted. :-)

JOdy Jul 18th, 2001 04:22 PM

I want to know what BTW means. I figured out IMO, IMHO, MDH, BTW escapes me

Lucy Jul 18th, 2001 04:24 PM

BTW = by the way <BR>...at least thats what I think it is...

mimi taylor Jul 18th, 2001 04:29 PM

Hi, vI just looked it up in my book THE INternet for Dummies. It means "by the way" I need a book for dummier, I find it too complicated have not learned much more than my hotmail and search which I use mainly trying to help my sick dog, but things pop up on the screen and I have no idea what the terms mean so I just click on the x.

Thyra Jul 18th, 2001 04:32 PM

There's also lol...Laughing Out Loud that one kind of stumped me for a while,, but I use IMHO all the time. <BR>

xxx Jul 18th, 2001 04:44 PM

When in doubt, RTFM. ;-)

JOdy Jul 18th, 2001 04:55 PM

Thanks for BTW, no I give in what's RFTM:)

Lucy Jul 18th, 2001 05:30 PM

My personal favourite is ROTFLMAO

@@@@@@ Jul 18th, 2001 05:32 PM

If you ask a "dumb" question of your IT people at work, they may very snootily tell you to RTFM and stalk away with their nose in the air. (read the f***in' manual)

JOdy Jul 18th, 2001 05:39 PM

Thanks , now I know what RTFM means, but its still no help because my manual was written by FI'S

No Way Jul 18th, 2001 05:44 PM

I was going to ask a related question but the people on this thread are so rude to beginners, and their mothers should wash their mouths with soap.

so Jul 18th, 2001 06:07 PM

Just ask it , you may get an answer if we are not all bombed out laughing.. lighten up , it's only a forum not the world conference on politically correct demeanor

omigod Jul 18th, 2001 06:12 PM

Oh, geez. I thought this was the world conference on politically correct demeanor! Excuse me ...

Art Jul 18th, 2001 06:13 PM

I've also seen LOL to mean Lots of Luck although sometmes neither fits. <BR>

JOdy Jul 18th, 2001 06:15 PM

ROTFLMAO okay I give up what is this?

Linda Jul 18th, 2001 06:27 PM

JOdy, it's Rolling on the Floor Laughing My A** Off.

JOdy Jul 18th, 2001 06:30 PM

JOdy Jul 18th, 2001 06:46 PM

Is that like the Yaa Yaa sisterhod, one of my all time favorite books?

NoName Jul 18th, 2001 06:48 PM

I think it means <BR> <BR>You Are All Full Of S***. <BR> <BR>(And don't kill the messenger on this one, folks!)

NoName Jul 18th, 2001 06:49 PM

On second thought, could be: <BR> <BR>You Are All F* Stupid. <BR> <BR>(Again, no violence, please.)

Lucy Jul 19th, 2001 12:11 AM

Any takers for FIGJAM?

Boris Jul 19th, 2001 08:53 AM

<BR>And I always thought LOL meant losers on line <BR> <BR>Boris

Austin Jul 19th, 2001 08:56 AM

<BR>ANNE <BR> <BR>Watch some old Charlie Chan movies on tv sometimes and you'll hear either Warner Oland or Sidney Toler (both played Chan) say, "In my humble opinion the murderer is.....etc."

Capo Jul 19th, 2001 09:28 AM

I always thought "IMHO" was Hawaiian singer Don Ho's response when people asked him who he was. :~)
