Someone asked me what does this mean?


HIJK
LMNO



I could not figure it out.


Can you guys help?I dont know the answer, my friend will give it to me later.

But it is an OBJECT. It is not abbreviation of anything.

My friend said "Think critically, use your imagination and try to yell out ideas!"

A 10 year old kid may know the answer as well, you dont need to have formal education to know the answer.

I'd guess:

HIJK = Honestly I'm just kidding (derived from J/K)

LMNO = Laughing my nuts off (derived from LMAO)

Hmm, an object?

Thoughts:

- Is the placement of the LMNO below the HIJK significant?

- HIJKLMNO are 8 sequential letters of the alphabet.

That's the best guess so far, but would a ten year old know that...
