B_part 03-03-2003 11:31 AM

IMHO In my humble opinion, I think.

Mojo 03-03-2003 12:10 PM

Or alternatively just IMO, In My Opinion.

Timber Loftis 03-03-2003 12:23 PM

ALTWITIM
Abbreviation lover that wastes inclacluable time inventing more. ;)

slicer15 03-03-2003 02:14 PM

ROFLMAO!! :D

Man, this is crazy, should I have asked? At least I'll know what they mean when someone posts them! [img]smile.gif[/img]
Yeah I knew about IMO, and thought IMHO would relate to that. Humble was one of the last words I expected though!
How did you guys learn about this? Should I even ask that question? ;)

Kakero 03-03-2003 06:05 PM

ROFLMAOTIDD. I learn those things on forums in the internet. too bad I can't use them in official writing.

I thought Timber would have made a better attempt than the one he did though ;) - I thought lawyers were all wordsmiths [img]smile.gif[/img]

Oh, I haven't read the rest of the thread and I just noticed the one you threw in - must be Ta Ta For Now ;)

Donut 03-04-2003 09:54 AM

This whole thread is a WOMBAT

Davros 03-04-2003 04:42 PM

Hmmm - I get all the others except the B? - breath perhaps?

Vedran 03-04-2003 04:52 PM

Here are some more frequent abbreviations. No, there is no WOMBAT.

</font>[/QUOTE]I was going for Waste Of My Breath And Time - the others all fit well, but the breath just jars a bit - doesn't seem like something ole Donut would say really ;) .

RevRuby 03-04-2003 07:00 PM

i like to confuse my mother with abbreviations, she's new to instant messengers so it works. things like dd1 or dh. occaisionally i use ttyl, ty, and yw, she really gets confused on the simple ones!
