ACRONYM. My 4 year college education didn't teach me much

Here are some acronyms that I found on the web and keep handy when I am IM-ing peeple so that I know what they are saying....

[Stampin Woman]

Here is a list of specific's that i can think of that relate to stamping...

EP - embossing powder
UTEE - ultra thick embossing enamel (SU! glassy glaze)
EB-embossing buddy
CE - Crystal Effects
PE- Pearl Ex
DS - SU! Demonstrator Support
SDF- SU! web page - Stampin Discuss Forum
Mono-Mono adhesive (SU! now calls it Snail adhesive)
Spots - Stampin' Spots (tiny stamp pads in SU! colors)
VM- Versa Mark
Brown - UPS

again HTH (hope this helps) (can also be Happy to Help)

[parisotremba]

okay that long long list of acranyms is CRAZY. Wish I could remember them all!!!

Thanks everyone.....
Keep 'em comming if you can think of more!

[Sereikastamper]

COULD THERE ACTUALLY BE MORE??????

[Stampin Woman]

Yes there are more......
I edited out about 1/4 of what was there due to content and also I edited some out because they were things we would just never use here on SCS - but computer junkies use them -
for example:
RYO means write your own program.
TFH - means thread from H### (one that just won't quit and has nothing to do with anything) (we don't do that here - haha lol)
BOF - Bunch of Floppies or
BOD- Bunch of disks

Things like that (see what I mean)

[cot10girl]

Here are a couple we use:

When we retire from running our own business all the worries will be
SEP (somebody else's problem)

Because our kids are extremely smart and very good looking (no bias here) we say it's
GSM (genetically superior material)

KG

[Kerrikay]

It is also good to know all of those acronyms if you have a teenager with a cell phone. They like to text message each other and often times it is in code. I don't have a teenager, but I know those who do and they have to learn another language to keep up!

[lesliemommy]

We use these alot on my mommy boards

OHT one handed typing
KWIM? know what I mean?
BRBBC be right back baby crying
OOMM Out of my mind
TTYL talk to you later

HTH Hope that helps

[schrades]

How about TBD = too busy disorder! Heard that last night on a Ellen Degeneris special!

schrades

[Sarah Carpenter]

What is ISO?

[ldidge]

ISO = In search of

Used when looking for a particular item to buy or trade.

Linda

[Cate]

This is not on the SCS website but in my house we have a lot of:
TLA's - three letter abbreviations
the best being:

RTM - Read The Manual (applies to any case of idiocywhen directions aren't followed - and usually applied to DH)

BTW (by the way), just for the pedantic (like me), most of those mentioned are TLAs, not acronyms, which according to the dictionary are words made up out of abbreviations. So RADAR (a pronouncable word) is an acronym and IBM (not really pronuncable), is not.

Comes of growing up in a house of English teachers!
Cate

[Stampin Woman]

thanks Cate for the english lesson and yes you are correct - these actually should be called TLA's

more that I though of is:
FS-for sale
FT-for trade
FSoT or FS/T - For sale or trade


So who out there is going to compile this list so that we will have one long list to post to the "getting started" discussion - so that newbies can find it right away. LOL

[kathleenh]

SKW- Stamping Kind of Way
As in I love you in a SKW.

Kathleen

[row4d]

Another one I picked up from message boards is ITA, for "I totally agree".

[jbalcer]

And if you want to know the origins of SKW - Beate & I started using that one here because someone asked about our relationship. So we love things, but in a purely skw, of course!

Just thought you needed to know that vital bit of background on it. . . probably TMI (too much information)!

[sharshee]

How about THO in relation to workshops?

[jbalcer]

THO = Totally Hands-On

[sharshee]

Thank you!! I could not figure that one out!!

Shawn

[norwaytroll]

If you have a teenager...how about MOMS?
I thought she was talking about me to her friends...NOT!
It means "Mom over my shoulder!" AAAGGGHHH!
You bet I am! LOL!

[teewrex75]

I have a teenager who programs and he thinks I'm OOTL (out of the loop) because I always have to ask him what this stuff means! He thinks he is so cool.

Like when you see a card you love, and you borrow the same basic design but don't have the same stamps or want to use the same colors - you "selectively edit" it.

[Cate]

Norway Troll,
Thanks for the heads up about "MOMS" - my "thinks she's a teenager" daughter will not be so ahead of me now! Are there any other important ones forthis age group?
Cate

That works too!

[iwasborn2stamp]

Here's a few I haven't seen yet, but I am speed reading.

TTFN = Tata for now (Tigger's favorite!)

TIA = Thanks in advance

OTOH = On the other hand


Great list so far!
Keep 'em coming!
NY Nan

[MoberKitty]

This is fantastic! I'm new to the forum community and was a little confused on some of the abbreviations. Thanks so much for clearing this up! You ladies ROCK!!!

I was told it meant: Copy and Steal Everything
However, I've come to the conclusion that unless I'm using someone else's acutal card/scrapbook page/handmade item without giving them credit, them I'm NOT stealing, just sharing or selectively editing.

This is added to explain the "editting" later on in this post.

[heresrita]

Or when you want to insult someone (not that I ever use it):
GIM - genetically inferior material

Thanks NorwayTroll. I knew she was talking about me and hiding something from me but wasn't sure. I'm going to have to learn to speed read as I walk by this computer!!!!

[tazadecafe]

I have "P.M.S." constantly....LOL
"Purchase More Stamps"....GinaF

[Cassandranet]

It took me a while as a newbie to figure out a lot of them. Like,

SAHM - stay at home mom
RAK - Random Acts of Kindness

I still don't know what BRAK is?

[STAMPINSTEL]

It is Birthday random act of kindness !

[Cassandranet]

Cool (or as we used to say 'Kewl')!

Thanks, Stampinstel.

Here's another one: What is TSF?

TIA! (heh heh)
