Translating Abbreviations

[australwind]

Can anyone give me a link to the thread that was about here somewhere, that gives the less familiar of us translations of what the various shorthand thingies that people use in posting?

You know the sort of thing I mean....

eg: IMHO = In My Humble Opinion

I know it was about here somewhere and I can't find it.

I have a newbie friend who would benefit from the help....

Thanks

OTOH = On the other hand.
YMMV = Your Mileage may vary.

Thank you.........I had the feeling you would know!

Just as well someone has their finger on the pulse!

Yeah, this kind of stuff is usually been done a dozen times before...

I was aware of that, Jimmy, that's why I asked for the link.....I couldn't remember where I'd seen it.


Anyway, there are couple of newbies on their way over to visit..hope they have fun once they find their ways here!

I've seen people here accused of having their fingers in a lot of different places, but on the pulse has never been one of em!

Ya know, TBK, when you reach a certain age it behooves one to check for that pulse on a regular basis. And if any of the lovely ladies of Lit wish to assist an old fart in making sure his pumper is still pumping, well the line starts here.

You do know that this means checking all your pulse points..not just the one in your neck, don't you?

Now Now, don't cry, my precious!

I had read the thread, just couldn't remember where it was that I had seen what I knew was out there somewhere....

Forgive my independance, for it leads me I know not where!


Feeling better now?

Ok so it does, everytime.
All better now.

Good!

There is nothing worse than a quoll with wet fur, caused by too may tears!

Wet fur has a most unpleasant odour!

Curses! Foiled again!

I particularly like the ones in the groin area......they pump ever so strongly, very easy to find!
