  • Abbreviations

    Thought I'd put this here but maybe it should be in Top Tips!!

    How about we construct a list of regularly used abbreviations for those who may be new to this forum/computer stuff. I know there are some I still struggle with and it can leave you bewildered cos you can't follow the comments fully.

    OK so I'll start with this.....

    LOL = laugh out loud.
    Bright Blessings

    If at first you don't succeed, open a bottle of wine.

    ROFL = rolling on the floor laughing
    LMAO = laughing my @$$ off

    combinations of the above are used

    OH = other half
    Happy Gardening,

                  sorry to be a google dame, but there is a dictionary which I had to make use of when I first arrived, don't know if other people are aware

                  http://www.urbandictionary.com/browse.php?character=A

                  The one I like best is : CRAFT Can't Remember A Flipping Thing. Sums me up completely.

                      I know it's just me, but I find it sad that people don't have time for words and phrases but have to communicate in alphabets. I know so many people who tell me they don't have time to cook, or garden, or take the children anywhere, or do anything. Do we really only have time to communicate in alphabets - or is there a point I've missed ?

                      From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.

                        I know waht you mean Alice, but I fear Text messages are the root of the evil as you are limited to the number of characters you can send in a message.
