[edit] Standardized Response

In order to combat the widespread evil and gay-ness of O rly, scientists in labcoats invented their own rival term: ya rly. This term can be used to shut up any whiny troll or 16-year-old girl on the internets.

"O rly?" "Ya rly!"

[edit] Foreign Versions

The Russians, envious of the British O RLY?, made up their own version of O RLY to make themselves feel important. The Russian O RLY is the word PREVED!, which is in some crazy foreign language noone has ever heard of.

PREVED! has a bear instead of an owl, and it what you say when you spot something surprising going on, such as Brotney Spears naked from the waist down, or some people fucking in the woods.

The Japanese use an almost literal translation of O RLY with the same picture of the owl, except they use the text, "MAJI DESU KA?!"

The French, in their ignorance of any legitimate language, persist in having a city named Orly, not to be confused with Orlyans or New Orlyans.

The Mexican, using their weird mexican spanish, state this as "neta?" and the answer to this should then be "si, neta"

[edit] Other Notes

The O Rly owl was immortalised as a clothing item for Gaia Online, an anime role playing community populated by people who weren't good enough for LJ.

The photofag who took the original O Rly owl photo has asserted his ownership, causing drama on Wikipedia.[2] Anyone who tries to make money from his photo will feel his wrath.[3][4]

Yeah, he traveled to mexico
