Top 12 Useful Internet Acronyms

 
23

Acronyms on the internet have existed for nearly as long as the internet itself. For regularly repeated phrases, this is a handy way to type less and speed up conversation. For someone in a chat room for the first time, conversation can look like scrolling alphabet soup, and for a parent, cell phone text from a child who is well-schooled in internet acronyms can be mind boggling.

Mom: “Where are you? Dad needs the car.”
Kid: “I’d B OMW but BFF wants BK AGKWE. I’ll BRT ASAP.”
Mom: “WHAT?! Just call me!”

Stick around for a translation.
