  • I've heard it said to me loads of times and I've used it a couple of times too.
    I think people use it when they are shocked or amazed about something, that they've done or has happened.
    I don't mind it, just not when it is used too much.

    No. I hate it when people use text-speak in real life conversations.

  • I have noticed that I am using omg irl quite a lot, but it took me a while to do so. I have tried and succeeded in getting rid of the bad habitude of lol-ing, but this one has stayed. Probably because there are a lot more occassions to say lol than to say omg, so that one was unnoticed.
    I even caught myself saying omfg, but I never actually used the full form of it. Probably because it does less sound like a curse.

    I never say 'oh my god' straight out as 'OMG' and I find it really annoying when I hear other people say it. I do say 'brb' though when I want to be obnoxious and stupid. :3

  • People actually do that?

    If I heard someone say that I would have a hard time not laughing. A really hard time.

  • I say it a lot only when I'm online. Like OMG or omg. When I read it aloud, I saw O.M.G., but offline I probably say "Oh my gosh" more. If I ever speak IM when I'm not online it's when I say "L.O.L" if something is funny, but not funny enough to laugh at literally. As for other people though, I'm glad I don't come across many (very few) who say O.M.G. It's annoying to hear that all the time, but yeah, I don't hang around many people who do that.

    No one has, thankfully. If they did, I'd make a point to laugh at them afterwards. xD;

    I hate that term.

    Saying 'ohmygod' is fine, and when I type out 'omg', my mind reads it out as 'oh my god'. It's kind of like how I read out 'RP' as 'roleplay', but actually saying "oh em gee" is totally lame, and I hate it. xD; Don't mean to offend anyone who says it.. just.. ugh. It annoys me, because it sounds so.. stupid.

    People say it like "OH EM GEE" in real life?

    I only hear it when people are just joking around. oAo

  • I sometimes say it for the irony, since people think of me as often being strict and difficult when it comes to conversational language. Otherwise, not many people use it where I live. Sometimes another girl might say it for the funzies like I do, though.
