I'm not a forum guru and I have trouble when people use these letter things to mean something or a phrase; example I noticed LOL used a lot recently. Is there somewhere that list this secretive code so I know what someone is trying to say. I've only recently started catching onto the Smiley's :rolleyes:
 
lol- lots of luck ( I think)
imo-in my opinion
imho-in my humble opinion
wtf-what the f*^$* (Gordon's and Ray's favorite saying) :lmao:
.02-two cents worth
fwiw- for what it's worth
bs- bulls*&t
mbs-more bulls*&t

I know there's more but its all i can think of at the moment. Oh, there's also snafu and fubar. See if you can figure these out.:lmao::lmao:

Ive also seen lot of people in other forums use QFT after quoting someone, always thought it was for quit f'n trying, only later to find on wiki its "quoted for truth'
 
And the ALL TIME best one............
BOHICA (pronounced bo-HEE-ka)
Usually used at work when you see the crap flowing downhill once more to where you are, it's BOHICA......Bend Over.....Here It Comes Again! I actually picked up this one in the Army. It was usually uttered when we saw the "First Shirt" walking toward us, but it works just as well im civilian life!
