For example -
OT
IRL
MO
IMHO
Etc...
And please write the meaning next to it.
Sometimes I feel like I'm not speaking the same language!

Somehow, even with googling I tend to forget what some abbreviations are, usually the same few. I skip over those "words" when reading, unless it changes the context of the post. If I am in the mood I google it then.

I really try to avoid shortcuts and abbreviations when posting.

(BTW I used 2B the Queen of Shortcuts in HS. My notes were 1/4 the L x most of my clsmts. LOL
