OK Zoo and BV, please explain your 'net-speak? I'm not familiar w/either
SLOMLAP or SOMLOL

I know the regulars like ROTFLMAO, etc.

This net speak was all or mostly coined on rec.ponds (we have many
budding comedians here). It all started a couple months ago, when
someone asked "what to do with dead animals in pond?" Since some of the
replies were quite irreverent and comic, I almost BEOKAMed or SLOMLAPed
or SOMLOLed my monitor, so I asked for contributions:

"Okay, someone has to invent an online acronym for spraying the computer
monitor with a beverage when reading a particular funny or irreverent
message ..."

John Rutz penned (keyboarded?):
... BEOKAM beverage ejected on keyboard and monitor ??

Sue added:
...
SLOMLAP = Spraying Liquid On Monitor Laughing At Post

Ingrid noted:
... well I usually tell people they owe me a new keyboard ...

BV suggested:
... SLOMLAP actually made me SLOMLAP so I'd have to vote for it. But I
am also a traditionalist and since ROTFLMAO is the most popular, I would
also like to suggest SOMLOL (Spitting On Monitor, Laughing Out Loud).

JD coined:
How about SLOSHAC?
(Sprayed Liquid On Screen; Having a Cow)

Susan said:
On a lot of listservs, it's simply referred to as spew.

Sameer contributed:
... unix administrators, have had pseudo-command for exactly this
situation. C|NK It translates to Coffee/Coke sent through the nose
all over the keyboard.
