The occasional stuff, but only around other faggots like myself.

Nope, although I do say "aye" in real life due to prolonged exposure to northern/Scottish people on MSN.

I do also. I say "mate" and "dude" as well. But it sits quite well with the danish language, 'cause we have so many foreign words already.
I fucking miss all you cunts!

I occasionally say blab, when someone is talkin shit, but thats about it.

Athough a guy i know, who really fucks me off, always says "What the WTF is that?"  I almost smash his nose everytime he says it!!

Well, I've been saying "dude" uncontrollably since like the 5th grade. I'm not sure why, but it pisses some people off. I think replacing it with "mate" would be cool, but I don't feel like having retards make fun of me for being Australian in denial or some crap.

My friend does alot, it's annoying. So I usually try to avoid him....

But yeah, I don't use them in real life, it sounds stupid and wrong....

They're usually only used with my friends who have been exposed to the internet too long. It's never frequent or overused.

No it isn't. Not by a long shot. Chat lingua is such a massive turnoff.

There's always exception to things! I'd agree though. It just makes it corny in this scenario.
