Do we even realize that not everyone understands what we are trying to say? Especially if you are using ones that are used in the work place that you work, or a nickname for something in the place you live. Maybe it’s the new method of shorthand?
This bugs me more in the workplace more than outside of it.
Smh
A few years back I was giving a long time P4 <<< fisherman directions using the scour hole <<< as a point of reference. He asked where the scour hole was.
Exactly to your point SC<<<
That’s what the Google machine is for. Acronyms and Urban slang. 
-J.
As much as I get confused when others use them in ways I don’t get, I also have my own from work and home I use that others probably think I’m confusing.
The idea of an acronym is to save time, but sometimes the obscure ones take up time because we need to look them up on the Googler! I’m not a huge fan of acronyms, as I find it easier just to type out the words – even when texting. I tried using BTW once and it just felt wrong. I do however use LOL but that one is probably the most common. I’m an amateur writer so my writing often has a more formal aspect to it.
Too many TLA’s IMO…
GTFO just doesn’t seem to carry the same heart-felt message when turned into an acronym. I avoid shortening it at all costs.
I’ve noticed that when people want to act like they are smarter then you they love to throw out acronyms especially in the business world. I see it alot with East Coasters.
My response to them – “I got no F’n idea of what your talking about.”
even when I do, Pi$$e$ em off 
Too many TLA’s IMO…

Well, Gran Turismo Omologato is hard to fit on a bumper, and hard to spell.

Much like trying to stamp “1/4 oz” on a floating jig.

Well, with supply chain shortages Brian, 1/4 and 3/8 oz floaters have been hard to find.
A PITA for sure, FUBAR by now. SMH
PBR me ASAP.
I have to use google to figure out most all the text and emails I receive from anyone under 30 these days. If they are under 20 – Good luck. there are using new acronyms that google has not even updated with yet.
IDGAF, IFYKYK. Acroynm’s are HTS.
I work for a big corp, they literally have their own language…it’s ridiculous.
Please reference the FJBS doc to formulate a SPAOP chart while taking into account the scope of the EMW and how PEHC will impact your QTC’s.

Gfy good for you – a sarcastic response
I live in a western state where the Bureau of Land Management manages vast amounts of land where hunting and fishing are common reactional endeavors. This agency is commonly referred to as the BLM
Now, with a new group called the BLM it can be confusing.
