<p>Exactly what the title says. What does o.O mean?!?! And why do so many people feel the need to write it at the end of a post??</p>

2

<p>shock, puzzlement, misunderstanding; raised eyebrow, skepticism</p>

3

<p>How could you not know? O.o</p>

4

<p>yeah, srsly. o.O</p>

5

<p>And of course, there’s also the lovely alternative in which you don’t pucker up your lips: “O<em>o/o</em>O”!</p>

<p>Ah, I prefer the O RLY owl version: (ovO)</p>

7

<p>lqtm…and for those who aren’t as computer savy as I am, lqtm means laughing quietly to myself.</p>

<p>Ha, first time I’ve seen that one. I like it.</p>

<p>o.O isn’t that hard to figure out.</p>

<p>But <3 is!!!</p>

<p>It took me like 2 months to figure it out. Kept thinking it was an ice cream cone, and a smiley face and a bird and all that crap.</p>

<p>o.0 really annoys me…
I hate when people use it.</p>

11

<p>I used to know what w00t meant, but I can’t remember anymore. Anyone care to enlighten me?</p>

12

<p>“w00t” was originally an trunicated expression common among players of Dungeons and Dragons tabletop role-playing game for “Wow, loot!” Thus the term passed into the net-culture where it thrived in video game communities and lost its original meaning and is used simply as a term of excitement.</p>

13

<p>Oh. O.o</p>

<p>.</p>

14

<p>I think all those signs are really lame… like xD xP 0.0 0___o o.0 etc.</p>

15

<p>Then don’t use them. o.O</p>

16

<p>Yeah, don’t use them. xDDDDDDDD</p>

<p>kekkeke; o_o"</p>
