Make up
fake acronyms. Online veterans like to use abbreviations like
IMHO (in my humble opinion) or RTFM (read the fucking manual)
to show that they're "hep" to the lingo. Make up your
own that don't stand for anything (SETO, BARL, CP30), use them
liberally, and then refuse to explain what they stand for ("You
don't know that? RTFM").</FONT></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.chiprowe.com/articles/net/net3.html"><FONT size="-1" face="verdana, arial, helvetica">4. Software
and files offered online are often "compressed" so
that they won't take so long to travel over the phone lines.
Buy a compression program and compress everything you send, including
one-word e-mail responses like "Thanks."</FONT></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.chiprowe.com/articles/net/net3.html"><FONT size="-1" face="verdana, arial, helvetica">7. Join a
discussion group and tie whatever's being discussed back to an
unrelated central theme. For instance, if you're in a discussion
of gun control, respond to every message with the observation
that those genetically superior tomatoes seem to have played
an important role. Within days, all discussion of gun control
will have ceased as people write you threatening messages and
instruct others to ignore you.</FONT></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/955A6C78-1C87-4C74-A827-4D5F68F23C90/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
