I normaly think of them as words in my head instead of letters. In my head
ROFL=rolf (rhymes with Ralf from the Simpsons)
pwned=pawned
LMAO=lamo (as in lamb-O)
I don't know why I pronounce them in my head that way but it's just the way it is.

ROFL = roffel
pwned = pawned
LMAO = lah-mayo

Why are you pronouncing yours with letters in incorrect positions?
 
ROFL - Ro-full
PWNED - Powned
LMAO - Laugh my ass off

^_^
 
rofl = Roffle
pwned = powned with a short 'p'
lmao = la mo
zOMG = zoh my god
 
Rofl - Roffle
Pwned - Powned
Lmao - Lamayo

Only in my head though.

Almost the same except "El-mayo".

Not many people pronouncing it as "pawned". :bonce:

lmao = el-mao
lol = el oh el
pwned = powned
wtf = weird pronunciation, it's phonetic

I find this one is split pretty much halfway between 'el oh el' and 'lawl'. I say 'lawl'.
 
I always thought that was pretty obvious, even though its an acronym.

Uwe Boll = Lol
Troll = Lol
 
lol = lol
rofl = roffle
lmao = l-mayo
pwned = prawned
wtf = I actually say "what the ****" in my head
ftw = for the win
roflmfao = rofflelamayfo

LOL- LAWL, El Oh EL
ROFL- ROFFLE
BRB- BURB
OMG- Oh My God

lol = either "el oh el", or "lull"

omg = oh my god
lmao = "el em ay oh"
teh = teh (rhymes with heh)
brb = "burb"
wtf = "what the eff"
zomg = "zoh my god"
 
Why do some people pronounce 'pwned' as 'pawned' ? 'pwned' was originally just a mispelling of 'owned' so it should keep the same sound (poned).
 
rofl - roffle!!!! like waffle rofl ma waffle!

pwned, pwned,... like owned... but pwned.... powned =\ how canu pronounce it any differently!?!??!

lol - lol, loll like doll

I read it sometimes writed as pawned
 
"O" and "P" sounds are completely different. You don't pronounce typos with any influence from the original word. "Teh" doesn't sound like "The".
