Humour, sarcasm, irony etc losing its effect when told over SMS, IM or other social networking media.
Person 1: "Hey, did you get that hilarious text message I sent you yesterday afternoon?"
Person 2: "Oh, that was a joke? I thought you were serious!"
Person 1: "Man, I hate it when my sharp wit gets lost in digitisation!"
Literally, an SMS text message that is mistakenly interpreted by the recipient to mean something other then what the sender meant the message to convey. This is a common problem as the limitations of characters that fit into a standard SMS text message require the sender to abbreviate or otherwise cut out words making the message harder to understand, hence lost in textlation.
Any text can be misinterpreted as grammer is rarely used so even a simple text like:
A text that says "what are you doing?" could be interpreted by the recipient to mean what are they doing that very minute or it could be a critique from the sender asking the recipient what the hell they are doing, i.e. what's their problem. This rather simple example demonstrates lost in textlation.
When matters of relationships are discussed via text, that is where things can really become problematic.

1.The coolest fucking game ever to exist. The graphics are amazing and it's aiming system makes fucking sense. The difficulty always provides a challenge while being possible to beat it. You just have to be as bad ass as me to do it.
2.A planet that you found in a telescope one night but then you never found it again.
"Go get Lost Planet right fucking NOW!"

Said when one loses the unwinable game,
origins of "the game" are unknown but can be dated back to AT LEAST the 1950's. the rules of the game are as follows
1) once you hear the second and third rule you are playing the game NO EXCEPTION!!
2) IF you think about you have lost the game, you must then forget about the game after 15 mins, if you think about the game again you have once again lost the game (and so on and so forth)
3) when you have lost the game you must announce to everyone else that is playing the game stating your losing status (i lost the game) thus making them think about and lose the game
this game must be handled with GREAT care as it will take over your life, there is no way around the game, you think about you lose, people stop trying to make loopholes...there is none!
mwahahahaha you are now playing/losing the game
Example one (as it is starting)
Erika: "did you see the number 23 last night, its obsessive"
Emma: "damn you i lost the game"
Erika : "oh hahahaha i lost the game"
Example two (when it is starting to take over your life)
Erika: "i cant belive its not butter"
Emma: "i cant belive i lost the game"
Erika : "i lost the game"
Example three (you are now completly obsessed)
Erika: "hi emma"
Emma : "i lost the game"
Erika : "i lost the game...."

Is the freedom that all marriages need. Husband and Wife get one three day weekend a year to go wherever they want and do whatever they want. They can only pay for things with cash to eliminate paper trail, and the best part is neither can discuss or ask about the trip afterwards. EVER!
If more marriages instituted lost weekends, the divorce rate in America would drop.

Lost files are photos or anything that hasn't been seen by anyone else, or shown to anyone else. A lost file is usually something that belongs to you., or is pertaining to you.
Ive recently found some lost files that might be helpful.
