Yep.
Now this is gonna sound pretty stupid, but can someone please tell me what FAO stands for? I know it's something like "For All Of", but I need to know for sure.....
It's killing me.....

props = problem (could also mean something like "thanks")
props = problem (could also mean something like "thanks")
np = no problem
np m8
I dunno. People seem to use it to say "well done" or something. Just wondering where it came from.

i think props and kudos is a pretty much an american phrase...hence I THINK! lol
props = good job, paying credit to where its due...
kudos = pretty much the same as above but more in a gracious form, i guess.. like THANKS..... get the jist
i think this thread should be devoted to all acronyms and abbreviations lol... no, for real...! a thread for all misunderstood acronyms/ catch-phrases/ slangs/ abbreviation/ lingos... anyone second my idea? hehe
