Fed up with cracking the Enigma code on threads

[Lovefilms]

Does anyone else get fed up with people writing posts with so many confusing abbreviations on here . I’m fed up with them . Can people not just write in English . Even common ones like dh ? Is that direct husband , dickhead husband , dead husband ?? Drives me nuts . Just put husband . There’s loads .
ds , dh, dm , nc , lc , and on and on and on . Even read one today that was gsd ? I thought I’d that a good short dance , or gravy so divine, no it’s what German Shepherd dog 😂😂
Just write English for Christ sake .
Ps I’ve put this on the AIBU page , know idea what it means !

It's just that every time I come across one of these abbreviations - especially a new one - I have to figure it out. If I read the word "husband" I just read it. If I read the initialism "DH", my brain takes a split second to remember that DSH means husband. It's just harder to read with no benefit.

But would it take you ten posts to figure it out? A hundred and ten?
Or is it a one and done thing and this really isn't a problem?

The benefit is that it's faster to type.

Oh gawd what a row! About nothing. You do the abbreviations or you don't who cares.. but it's like a lovely code to see whose been here a while ( usually helpful) and who hasn't ( usually a thread de trailer/ troll ) 😀😀😀

I understand your perspective, it's a mix sometime the context helps me to understand the meaning

Well not really seeing as we have a special term for it I wondered if they did too, no need for snippyness 🙄

... no snippyness on my part.

YABU. Communities have their own jargon. It gives them a bit of character, and members learn the jargon and feel at home. It's not exactly difficult to get the hang of, plus MN provides a handy list. If you don't want to use the abbreviations then don't. But don't expect the site to change to accommodate your tastes.

The A's on MN are CRAP - NNAL

And that’s all I’m now going to say in the matter.

I don't need to figure it out. I know that DH means husband but it's still a barrier to communication. My brain has to do the translation every time.
