Why not just ' K ' or ' KKK '.

I wonder who made kk up. :/

In all honesty, that is how "kk" was explained to me.

An abbreviation for Ok,Kool.

K - the greek letter Kappa. K also stands potassium in the periodic table of elements. The K is used because of the Latin word "kalium". K is also the curvature of a curve in differential geometry.

So when people say "KK" they might be saying "Potassium, Potassium" or be referring to the "curvature of the curvature of a curve".

The KKK is scary, there just some mega-racist-terrorist-"Christians". But then since they kill people, there not Christians.

I say kk sometimes. I rather say "Savvy".

Case and point.

I have no doubt that there are English teachers all over the world itching to make kids work on spelling and word usage now. It's just internet slang, people are just that lazy.

Yeah, I think there's a reason for not saying "kkk"
But hey, say whatever you want to :P

well...like in a lot of the SMS language, "k" or "kk" are "cut words" from original words.

k = OK = Okay

So "kk" would stand short for "okay okay". Try typing "okay" or "okay okay" all the time and you will know why people changed it to "k" or "kk"

The reason "kkk" isn't use is, yes maybe, because it shows racial problems, but it is also kinda long and sound bad as "k" or "kk". I mean no one really says "okay okay okay"

ORLY? Do we really want to go there in this thread? I think not...

OT: Another thing I heard about the origins of "kk" was from people hitting the 'k' button twice on accident, kind of like how we got "zomg" from "omg" because of a popularization of a mistype.

Actually the proper idiom is 'case in point', not 'case and point'.
