Sorry, but some of us don't spend 17 hours a day on a message board to know what all of the internet abbreviations mean. In my opinion, many people who use the not-so-common acronyms in their posts are too lazy to type the appropriate word. It also shows lack of respect for the forums and intimidates other posters. Abbreviations such as "LOL", "BRB", & "IMO" are quite common and most of us generally know what they mean, but when people start using words like "DH", it can get confusing. Why should I have to go out of my way to find out what certain abbreviations mean just because the poster is too lazy to type the appropriate word?
Besides, something like "DH" can mean a few different things according to the Internet Abbreviations Dictionary:
I'm kind of glad people do use them cause they show up everywhere and if everybody here didn't I would not have known what my 5 year old grandaughter was talking about the other day when she came in from school and said What up my peeps!! lol
I am thankful that you posted ditto,cause I didn't know that there was a Internet Abbreviations Dictionary!

Absolutely clueless here - did I even come close?

Oh wait! This isn't a poll! Whew... what was i thinking. I will be right back
I use to play a internet game called Acrophobia.
The system would put up an acronym the winner chooses the subject then the other players would try to create the best match and then it was voted on by the members on who had the best then they would have the opprotunity to pick an acronym. In each game whoever was the top two would have a square off for the winner.
I just dont understand the use of symbols like dh on a forum since everything else is spelled out a chat room or text message seems more logical.
I don't care for the abbrevitions either. Spell the words
