I'm curious, what's wrong with "LOL"? I thought that was the universally accepted way of expressing amusement on the Internet? Would "haha" have been more appropriate on HN or is expressing amusement generally frowned upon? I apologize for being ignorant of this matter. I'm not quite yet acquintated with proper self-censorship protocols necessary to communicate on this site. It seems rather strict but I honestly don't find that to be a problem as long as the cultural rules are well defined. As for the topic at hand: I beleive nim, nimrod, are key words that might be flagged for inappropriate content. They are similar to "nimph", "nimphomaniac", etc.
