WOW! (that stands for WOW!) lol
It's faster for me to type out the word then it is to figure out some of what they all stand for.
But it is interesting to see just how much we have shortened our spelling for the sake of being faster and then we also wonder why our kids don't know how to spell. Two ways to look at things I guess.
I'll have to print it out LTR - NTN (No time now) :lol: :lol:
TY

almost everything used here is used elsewhere in texting. here is a list of all texting acronyms. what we use can be found alphabetically. ignore the rest.
