Here are some previous threads that dealt with this too.

Another one I just found out was IRL "in real life." I guess it applies to anything you try out, like strollers.

IRL also can mean meeting someone "in real life." Basically anything that doesn't happen "online."

Oh. I did not know that. I don't deal with real life regularly :P Isn't is strange and a little sad that we need to classify that things happen in real life? But I'll never give up my computer!

Or is it just sad that we're so busy typing so much that we've come up with ways to abbreviate things just to save ourselves a few keystrokes!

I'd have nobody to "talk" to if I didn't have a computer! LOL!

And at least with the computer, you can keep in touch with, or find new, friends you actually like! ;)
