ChasingAmy

I missed this term when it became very net popular... can somebody fill me in to what it means??

I tried searching the forums but "<3" is under 3 characters and cant be searched!

I cant make much sense of what it could possibly mean... and by all means if it is something very obvious, please flame away!! lol.

TIA!

Thanks for asking this question. I wasn't sure either. I actually thought it was boobs or something maybe.

Now I'm really revealing the blonde side of me. Please ignore.

haha, that's how I always read it too. Takes me a second before I realize that makes no sense and it's probably a heart or something.

This one I've seen almost everywhere on online games but I can't find out what it means: Either a single ^ or a double ^^.. I know that sometimes it refers to what someone said previously but i've also seen it outside that context..
I'm guessing to show supprise or someting (raised eyebrows)..

I made this for everybody here



maybe it's a heavy heart or something. I just thought it would be cool to make some cracks

todd

Heres what might happen if the mutual forces between the < and 3 were to be severed



Whats really weird is as I was making that, the song "Falls Apart" by Sugar Ray came on the radio.

spectre
