Things that make you go HMMMMM?

Regarding the "My boyfriend is a JW" post, with all of the HMMMM's. The meaning of HMMMMM? And what makes you go HMMMMMMMM?

It depends on the tone that the Hmmmmm is expressed with e.g. Hmmmmm with a low note implies doubt and scepticism, whereas Hmmmmmm with a high note indicates surprise and pleasure.

You choose.

Cheers,

Hmmmm.... usually means: "I smell a troll!"

Is that like "fe-fi-fo-fum, I smell the blood of a troll-man"

vouched for by a 10 post newbie ... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Vouched for by her Mom. Please be kind to her. Do you have any idea how much courage it takes for a kid to post on this board? To discuss a personal situation with strangers who can give her insight into her first big crush. A guy who lives a really strange religion. She can't talk about it with school friends, they wouldn't have the faintest idea , as he "passes" so well. If you are interested look up the post of mine that introduced myself and the situation in the parenting forum here.
Maybe I made a mistake in letting her get involved here. It didn't even cross my mind that people would not think she was a child...OK teenager.
Please discuss with her, but don't be mean to her. She won't have a chance to look at any of this till after school, then she can reply as she wishes. By the way, she writes well becsue she is an honour student in a program for bright children.

even if her Mom can't spell "because".

By the way, yes, I am new at this. What exactly is a troll? I gather someone who is not what they seem in order to create a controvercy. If there is more to it, please tell me.

You pretty much got the definition of 'troll' - you'll have to excuse us we've been burned before by stories like this, but just ignore the Hmmms for now - they'll go away once you've been here for a bit. It's the same on any discussion board - you don't carry much 'weight' until you've been there awhile. Maybe not the best policy, but on the net people can pass themselves off as whomever they please due to the anonimity. So many people err of the side of not beleiveing stories ...
