I'll gladly admit I'm not the fastest crayon in the box
But does any one else struggle with acronyms, I personally do, so much so that I've start to use my own, just so people, mainly younger siblings and family members know what it feels like, for example.
AJH. Ahhhhh jaysus howya
Imltlo. In my less than learned opinion
Neli. Not even laughing inwardly
Mas. Midly amused smirk
Dns. De nort soyid |

"Bar "lol", I don't use them. "
The one acronym that annoys me the most is "lol", I prefer the old school Hahahah, or even a laughing emoji to "lol"
and it's even found its way into spoken word. I literally heard someone the other day saying "OMG#LoLs" |

I would never say LOL when speaking to someone in the flesh. So wrong.
WB, you being Captain of The Grammar Police, your use of acronyms surprises me.

Fun fact. The word acronym only accounts for abbreviations where the letters spell out a new word. Like "NASA" or "lol". If you have to individually pronounce each letter, like "wtf" or "BBC", then it's called initialism. |
