why the acronyms

 WHY THE ACRONYMS

an acronym is formed by using the first letters of words
like
asap as as soon as possible
cdc as center for disease control

lmao is laughing my donkey off
kma is kiss my donkey
lol is laughing out loud or is it lots of love
they could have different meanings huh
one mom thought lol meant lots of love and used it that way until her daughter corrected her

according to kim komando here are the 10 most searched ones

you know like wtf means whys that funny
oops know thats not the right answer

1. SMH: Shaking my head
2. POV: Point of view
3. TBH: To be honest
4. ASL: Age, sex, location (or “as hell” with the younger crowd)
5. BBL: Brazilian butt lift or be back later
6. HMU: Hit me up
7. NSFW: Not safe for work
8. LMAO: Laughing my @ss off
9. OFC: Of course
10. TTYL: Talk to you later
    
    so i looked at these 10 most searched for ones
    i am not sure i have ever searched for any of these
    or 
    used one
    bbl why would i want to use that one why dont i just write be back later
    it took less than a second to type
    or why would i care about a brazilian butt lift
    since im not a kardashian fan
    
    wait i did use whys that funny a few times
    
    i dont write ttyl i write later
    
    asl is not needed by me to use 
    maybe the younger single crowd uses that one 
    swipe left or swipe right based on the answer
    
    so
    i looked at all those
    i looked through my texts
    i dont think i use any acronyms at all
    i do some emojis like smiley faces or thumbs up or a heart
    but not acronyms
    it seems easier to type out the words
    like
    see ya later
    or bye
    or thanks
    or thats bad
    or dont think so
    or call me or text me
    or i agree
11. 
    those are my acronyms typed out
    oh wait
    i do use
    u r
    a lot
