Other Acronyms

What do you call those things like
LOL
and
ROFLMAO
and other on-line shorthand thingy-dingys?

Because I’m getting bored with the usual ones.

There’s WTF and JFC and OMG — and I’m not about to elaborate on those if you don’t know what they stand for.

But I’m thinking of adding:

LYLGFS (Love You Lots, Going For Sushi)
and
RLGJITS (Running Late, Gotta Jump In The Shower)
and possibly also
MMHLIT (Mama Mia, How Lame Is That?)
to my repetoire.

Other contenders include
GGMM (Good Golly Miss Molly)
and
IASLURN (I Am So Loving U Right Now)
or
SUSCW (See U Soon, Can’t Wait).

Then there’s
LHM (Lord Have Mercy)
and
TBTG (Thanks Be To God)
and
PTL (need I say?)
for the religious set.

Finally, we could add
GGNC (Gotta Go, Need Chocolate)
or
FAWIT (Falling Asleep While I Type)
and
PWS (Procrastinating Writing Sermon).

Would you like to nominate a few?

  8. Okay Chut, you got me… um, “Fat Twit Writing?” Or “Funny Terrible Wench?” Or, wait ! I forgot to include FWIW! And BTW! And IMHO! How could I have forgotten to mention THOSE?

  9. I forgot… OMFP, which is ever useful, and which I find I use in speech with my wife and friends at least weekly. Which is probably why it didn’t come to mind.

    One More (Freaking) Project.

    If you’re not familiar with it, it’s typically used as one takes on another task that has to fit into an overburdened schedule, or someone heaps another straw onto your camel’s back. Perhaps by you, or observed by someone else, sotto voce…
