I think it is just an addiction to chat slang, and personally i never really liked it...but...it has become known far and wide as the representation of a giggle or a mild mannered laugh. Writing the real thing or even sounds forced when you type it, it also comes across as a good loud cackle or a solid belly laugh...basically too strong for the reader... There is no middle ground words to make up for the cavernous space between the to so i guess we made up our own and it just caught on from there! lol, if you don't like my answer though, i hope at least you got a good laugh off it!

hi, perhaps there are some virus with your IE browser.

i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar. firefox can disable all virus to run, because the virus can only run on IE.

besides, firefox can block any any poppus and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE. as you know, most of the virus is spread throught internet and webpage.

firefox is much smaller than IE, so i run faster than IE.

download firefox for free:

Best Wishes && Good Luck!
