ab·bre·vi·a·tion (-brv-shn)
n. 1. The act or product of shortening. 2. A shortened form of a word or phrase used chiefly in writing to represent the complete form WHICH IS COMMONLY USED ON THE INTERNET. We only communicate through text anyway, so it's not as if members are literally screaming these abbreviations in your face. Which would, obviously, be 'eye gauging' material. If you have a problem with ILY, IKR....then maybe we should ban every other one like LOL, LMAO, PMSL etc they're ALL the same. No one on here, apart from a few people, has perfect English on here anyway so accusing others of writing something which is annoying is the most hypocritical thing I've witnessed on here. I'm not mentioning names. ILY x ![]() |

I actually completely agree with you. Some of the people who object to the abbreviations can't spell for ****.
If we are going to crack down on abbreviations, then I'm going to unleash the inner spelling nazi, and go postal on all of their asses. |

Plus we use abbreviations in everyday English anyway, "OK" for example, which is widely accepted as an actual word now.
Like someone said, the only one I can understand a problem with is "ohai", which is a random abbreviation, but I personally don't see problem with people using it. Then again I guess I can see why people get annoyed, because I personally don't like completely text-speech sentences such as "hi how r u? im gud 2 thx" - but that can be supported by the same argument. |

I love ohai, because it originated in the lolcats site, which I love.
