to think that MNers abuse acronyms

when talking about DP, DC, LO and the nasty FIL. I find even more confusing when they start mixing common (or medical) acronyms with MN ones to speak about TTC with PCOS and looking for CD to DC.

Grrrrr, if you are ACAM (as confused as me), speak now or forever hold your peace. TIA

It's a load of bollocks. I hate them and refuse to use them.
It reminds me of getting a text from an older person trying to be cool by writing in text speak, cringeworthy.

You know what I hate? The strike out. When it's used for perfectly reasonable sentences. You know, the lines that are actually part of the story. Why!!

What annoys me is the misuse of the word 'acronym'. Most of these aren't.
