TEXT ABBREVIATIONS - FORUM TALK


Recommended Posts

I was wondering if we should start a list of abbreviations that we all seem to use in conversations/posts as I am sure now & again somebody would get stuck on some of them, also for the benefit of newbies.

My list is small & by no means complete but I am sure there would be a few contributors to enlarge it. I wasn't going to include any of the 'R' list.

  • TBO - To be honest
  • IMHO - In my humble opinion
  • ATM - At the moment
  • BTW - By the way
  • BRB - Be right back
  • AFAIN As far as I know
  • ASAP - As soon as possible
  • LOL - Laughing out loud
  • JK - Just kidding
  • KIT - Keep in touch
  • SWMBO - She who must be obeyed
  • LBHS - Local Home Brew Shop
  • HAND - Have a nice day
  • MYOB - Mind your own business
  • OTOH - On the other hand
  • ICYMI - In case you missed it
  • FWIW - For what it is worth
  • TTYL - Talk to you later
  • TY - Thank you
  • NP - No problem

Maybe this one could be useful for Boomers

PICNIC - Problem In Chair Not In Computer

That's an ID-Ten-T error. 😄 And as an ex-computer support guy, it ain't just Boomers. 😄

Of course not.  But we boomers invented it along with the phrase " I have to ring my niece, she knows about this stuff "

Curious aside :  On my old iPad 3 your message reads the number 10  but on my  PC it reads ID-Ten-T.   I'll have to call my niece...

1. Maybe your iPad was on the thread when I first posted it and had the '10' but then I figured that was too easy so I edited it to 'ten' 😄

2. Maybe you are making it too easy for others? 😄
