Jennifer suggested that we list our favorites this week for Monday Listicles. I'll spare you the work ones; here are some of my favorite everyday acronyms.
10 ACRONYMS YOU USE REGULARLY
1. LOL (laughing out loud) -- I definitely overuse this one, but in my defense, I also find pretty much anything hilarious. Especially this time of year, when I am hopped up on the Benedryl.
2. LMAO (laughing my arse off) -- Reserved for those times when I am laughing so hard, I start crying. Maybe it should be LMEO.
3. OMG (oh. my. gosh.) -- Becky, look at her... oh, sorry. Used when something is really shocking. Or I want to play Valley girl.
4. WTF (what the frijoles?) -- Often used when the Bruins aren't playing very well, or the referees are making bad calls. One of the rare ones I sometimes spell out when I am speaking. Because we all know that F isn't for frijoles.
5. LMK (let me know) -- A favorite when I'm texting.
6. NP (no problem) -- We use this one at work, but sometimes I use it when texting. Although, my phone likes to change it to "no" and then I just confuse people.
7. TTYL (talk to you later) -- Not quite as cool as TTFN, but it works.
8. OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder) -- Must line things up straight. Must organize code so everything is indented correctly. Must wipe my mouth after every bite of food. I'm better than I used to be, mainly because I am too tired. Once I have the energy, I'd love to alphabetize something, though. :)
9. SOG (shots on goal) -- A hockey acronym. I only mention it because my friend saw it on a score board once and asked, "What does that stand for? Son of a gun?" And all season it was, "We had 50 sons of a gun and couldn't even pull out a win." LOL
10. TMI (too much information) -- Sometimes, it's necessary to pull out the "Whoa! TMI!" Sometimes while listening to pop or rap music, or watching reality TV.
Have a good week, everyone. :)
