I know I may have left some out, but after 15 minutes or so of typing this and finding abbreviations, I thought I needed to narrow it down a little. :D

Signatures are useless. That's why I have one.

By the way, I think the ones that annoy me the most are lobby/lobbies and Baxe because they both sound wierd when someone actually says them.

I don't mind when people say lol. I hate it when they say LAWL! Lol means Laughing out loud, it is not the universal slang for haha.

 

I don't mind when people say scimmy. I hate it when they say Skimmy! The 'C' is sCilent!

 

I don't mind when people say newbie. I hate it when people say nub. A nub is choicest or most essential or most vital part of some idea or experience.

 

 

 

Anyway, Those are the three I don't like. Otherwise, abbreviations just help you say things faster.

Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, your commodity drops in value.

Every single one that ends in -y.

 

 

 

"I'm off to Fally to kill guards with my addy scimmy."

 

 

 

My friend, who got me into this game, actual talks that way when discussing the game. Ugh. Why do you need abbreviations when speaking?

Most of them don't annoy me so much. I don't like most of them that replace syllables with numbers (i.e. W8, pl8, l8er, etc.). A few others that just randomly make me cringe are:

 

 

 

- IMO

 

- TBH

 

- O (It annoys me when you say something and the person replies with just "O.")

 

- ?

 

- Plz

 

- IDK
