Of course, there's IITYWYBMAB. It doesn't often come up on this forum (likely never has, until now), but under the right situation, can help build relationships stronger.

I have seen it several states times in a discussion . What does OP stand for? It is normally in reference to the person that started the discussion or asked a question.

I hate abbreviations, so I follow the golden rule and refuse to use them.

I got these in email today. While they are not really firearm related, with the average age of the CHL holders in Texas, this will hit many of us. LOL
Teens have their texting codes (LOL, OMG, TTYL, etc.).
Not to be outdone by these little SNK(snotty nosed kids),
Now, finally we long-suffering seniors have our own texting codes!
*************************************************************************
Texting for Seniors as follows:
ATD - At the Doctor's
BFF - Best Friend's Funeral
BTW - Bring the Wheelchair
BYOT - Bring your own teeth
CBM - Covered by Medicare
CUATSC - See You at the Senior Center
DWI - Driving While Incontinent
FWBB - Friend with Beta Blockers
FWIW - Forgot Where I Was
FYI - Found Your Insulin
GGPBL - Gotta Go, Pacemaker Battery Low
GHA - Got Heartburn Again
IMHO - Is My Hearing-Aid On?
LMDO - Laughing My Dentures Out
LOL - Living on Lipitor
OMMR - On My Massage Recliner
ROFL..CGU - Rolling on the Floor Laughing...Can't get Up!
TOT - Texting on Toilet
TTYL - Talk to You Louder
WTP - Where are the Prunes
WWNO - Walker Wheels Need Oil
Hope these help!
GGLKI - Gotta Go, Laxative Kicking In

TAM (The Annoyed Man):
Thanks for expanding on my screen name's initials.
Here I went and reeled off a bunch of abbreviations, then I didn't even define myself.
Oh...I expanded on your abbreviation above. Turnabout is fair play.

After a successfully executed self-defense shooting, the aggressor may be referred to as DRT (dead right there).

To the OP, IMHO I think you should just ask the person that wrote the post. It happens to all of us and no one will think less of you for it.
IMHO=In my honest opinion
