hugs and kisses

The message is that the person who sent you the note wants to hug you and kiss you, and more! This is a string of "abbreviated signoffs,"which are often used in chatrooms and instant messaging. The x's ando's represent hugs and kisses. The y's stand for "making out" thatgoes beyond kissing. Below is a partial list of these abbreviations."These days it's quite common for messages on social-oriented bulletinboards to end with signoffs like "Hi and hugs to everybody." In fact,this has become so popular that as much as 7.5% of the disk space onsome BBS's is currently devoted to this particular comment. TheInternational Committee for Relatively Pointless Abbreviations and Badly Misspelled Acronyms (SPUDS) has just released a new,internationally approved list of abbreviated signoffs.

These include:
ooo = hugs
xxx = kisses
OOO = big hugs
XXX = big kisses
oo = hugs for everybody but you
OO! = big, excited hugs
CCC = hugs for people you can't quite reach around
OOQ = hugging with tongue
xx@ = kisses and earlobe nibbling
zzz = snoring
yyy = anything that occurs between kissing and snoring"
