Puzzled by the meaning

[furyrider]

I have been puzzled by something I see from time to time and think I am stupid for asking. What is the meaning of 5555 ? I have seen it used a lot on the Thai forums I visit and have asked everybody I know but the answer has eluded me.

 

[R1000]

It means ha, ha , ha, ha (i.e. an expression for laughing)

 

[johngooding]

It means that because if you pronounce the number 5 in Thai it has the sound 'ha', hence 555, is ha, ha, ha, etc.

55+5! Good one!

Have you figured these out yet Fury?
