But I have a question on the intricacies of online chatting. Let's say you were talking to a girl on ICQ, MSN Messenger, or a similar chat program. If the girl periodically typed "mmmmmmm", would you get the impression she was getting off (even for a split-second before you realise from the context etc. that she's not)? Now this happened to me when I was talking to someone, and I had to mention it eventually. It's clear the person was meaning to convey uncertainty or confusion by writing "mmmmmm", but I would write "hmmmmm" in this situation instead.<br /><br />Your thoughts? Is it just me? <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Cartman</b> <br /><small>Member # 256</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2002,0,24,6,46,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0));
