Ditto is Aussie slang, for "I'm in the same situation as you" or "Me also".

Eg. "Id have a fishtank over that any day." to which you reply "Ditto"

This isn't limited to car talk.

Eg. "Shit mate, I reckon I'd go her" to which you reply "Ditto".

 

 

Noob is Gaming slang from the original Expansion players of World of Warcraft.

Is a derogatory term used to put someone down because they aren't as well practised, Or can't yet grasp the concept.

Eg. Person A asks person B to point out a headlight on a Vehicle, Person B points to an indicator. Person A calls Person B a "Noob" because he doesn't know a cars anatomy well enough yet.

This isn't limited to car talk either.

Eg. "I bet noone has ever played cricket on the big dish in Parkes" To which you reply "Noob".

ditto troll

 

Seems to have changed meaning over the years.. Trolling, doing/saying something just to catch a reaction, not because you believe in it.

 

Now it seems to be used like noob- if you don't like the guy's opinion you call him a troll. Anyone else find this? What's it meant to mean these days?

Seems that at some point people have started to take the term trolling to mean acting like a complete retard/kunt, as opposed to winding people up with genuine intelligence and with.

 

Ain't what it used to be.

 

I am a troll IRL

Any more you want to know? Those are leet terms not car ones, what about car related terminology, anything we can clear up for people?

 

 

Ditto isn't a "l33t" term, it has been around for hundreds of years and is a recognised term (most likely stemming from Latin or Italian).
