I have a question!!! I was on some website with funny pictures, like collegehumor, and some of the pictures had captions like "Retarded/10" or "Hilarious/10"... stuff like that.

What does the " /10" mean? I've never seen it before.

What does IE stand for? And no not internet explorer.. like when people give examples sometimes they say IE, but I dont have a clue on what the I and E stand for.

Also, is there an actual word called etc? Or is etc. the only way it can be used.

And why do I feel stupid asking stupid questions even though its in the stupid question thread?

IE is latin for Id Est which means "that is". Definition - that is to say, or in otherwords
