The terms originated from online censorship but to me using these terms IRL is very similar to people who use internet slang out loud. Might not be censoring herself but just so used to using those terms. It's annoying either way though.

You know, I never questioned where the term roflcopter came from, but I just looked it up and it comes from the WarCraft III forums in 2003. It actually refers to the gyrocopter in the game rather than a helicopter. This has been another...

Yep, then when they were in wow, roflcopter just continued to spread.
