Lol - I thought that the first time I saw that acronym ^_^

I used to use "BRB - fag" quite a bit, until I discovered Americans.

BRB SMOKE can take ages with me. Probably shouldn't bring my PSP or cellphone, but I'm bored so easily... and before you know it I've forgotten I'm still logged in GW.

brb - cat is going crazy. Just a few minutes to kick him out
brb - pee break. Happens when I'm drinking, only takes 2-3 min to do a drunk pee
brb - get drink. If I'm opening a bottle of wine, a few minutes. If I'm getting a few beers from the fridge, just a min or two.

I make sure when I join with others that there's no reason I'd need to brb for more than several min.

Coffee - ~5mins
Food - ~5mins
Drain the snake - ~5mins
Feed the snakes - ~20mins
Answer the door - 1min-never

I usually just say brb, though one time I had to pause when my dog vomited on the floor. My group got a good laugh from that. Took about 20min

Sno, yeah we don't call cigarettes that on this side of the pond. I'm sure you got some interesting comments.

Malice, I thought the euphemism was drain the lizard and not drain the snake.

For me BRB depends on if I need some water, a snack, or to pee, all of which would be under 5 minutes, if I need to make tea it'd be a little over 5 minutes, if I need to stretch or take a quick break it'd be up to 15 minutes. If I need to walk the dog, then it really depends on how long it takes the dog to finish up.

Yeah I thought it was slap the snake and drain the lizard. Apparently it must change reptilian form depending on the activity currently being performed. Of course you could always just spank the monkey. o.0

brb soup

10minutes - be right back, im going to consume some soup. If its chunky you can probably get away with shovelling it in, if not it might take a bit longer. Time is drastically decreased with "brb cupasoup"
