Go to google.com

Type in 'warez'

See what comes up, and ponder why some people might think this is a good
thing.

As for all the zeds, its a hair-dresser thing, baby.

He is simply saying that warez (illeagal downloadable software) rules
(is great)

>and that longer version of ROFL ......

You mean ROFLMAO? Thats the combination of ROFL (rolling on the floor
laughing) and LMAO (laughing my ass off). To give a combined meaning
of rolling on the floor laughing my ass off

>any one speak nerd that can translate ?

Please note this is not nerd speak, its is idiot/script kiddie speak.

Great, I get to use my nerd's dictionary someone bought me for Xmas. Knew
it would come in handy.

<nerd mode> "Warez Rules" = "Pirated software is great."
"ROTLFMAO" (was it?) = "Rolling on the floor laughing my ass/arse off."
</nerd mode>

Read the fucking manual.

As far as I can see.

To be honest.

If I recall correctly.

You just did.

Perhaps it means Caught The Clap? It would fit just nice after a/s/l?

Purely guessing (and not having read the doubtless hundreds of posts
following this one that make my reply pointless), I'd say that last one is
'If you see what I mean'. Also, IIRC could mean If I Remember Correctly.
Perhaps.

Yes that's right, I am a fool. I read it wrongly, and thought 'IIRC' had
been translated to 'in Internet Relay Chat'. Skim back over it and you'll
see how the mistake was made.
