Short hand
I don't know if anyone else suffers from the mental affliction of "being a dumbass" but some nights i come on here and can't
figure out the abbreviations.....
I'll get it going with:
SWMBO - She who must be obeyed
IMO - In my opinion
IMHO- " " honest opinion
Anyone going slower than you is an idiot. Anyone going faster than you is a maniac.
Too many targets but too few bullets.

I only ever use them to be ironic/annoy people. Works really well tbh. When texting people I use full words.

What it is with people putting apostrophies in TLAs that are plural? You only use apostrophies where something belongs to the word with the 's
or if you are ommiting one or more letters and you're replacing the letters with an apostrophe. You don't use an apostrophe for a plural!
Grrr!
