I have an Issue.

<< < (7/9) > >>

dsquire:
Since we are straying off topic (SOT) here and listing some of our pet peeves (PP) I thought I would pop in here with one of mine. It seems that some people are in so much of a hurry or are to lazy to type/write/speak that they have to reduce everything to code. That would be fine if everyone was programmed with the same code, but they are not. Here are a few acronym's that I found recently in post's. Some I think I know the meaning. Some I have guessed the meaning but could be wrong. Some can have different meanings depending on what the conversation or subject is that is being discussed.  JBYKWTAM don't expect everyone else too.

I would like 2 things here.
1.   Your comments
2.   Your interpretation of what these acronym's mean

Good one SOT. I thought it was either 'Stray on topic' or 'Stray off topic'. More confusion. :doh: :doh:

Cheers  :beer: May need a few of these before we get this straightened out. :lol:
