Great idea...can we keep this going? There are still some shorthands I don't understand...

I forget to ask what they mean. New members I'm sure would like to know. Can a list get posted somewhere as a heading, like "menus"? Seriously...when I first came on board I didn't know any of these and it was a bit confusing. I'll add one more to the list:

LOL = laugh out loud

FYI = for your information
MIL = mother-in-law
FIL = father-in-law
SIL = sister-in-law
BIL = brother-in-law

AKA = also known as
IMHO = in my humble opinion
ROFL = rolling on the floor
ROFLMAO = rolling on the floor laughing my a** off
DIY = do it yourself
G = grin
EV = evil grin
OMG = oh my god
FWIW = for what it's worth
HTH = hope this helps
