IMSpeak: Omnipod Survey on IM Acronyms
Posted by Stowe Boyd
Omnipod released results of a survey regarding instant messaging acronym use. The top ten:
1. BRB Be right back
2. CTRN Can't talk right now
3. IMO In my opinion
4. HTH Hope this (or that) helps
5. IAM In a meeting
6. WFM Works for me
7. BFO Blinding flash of the obvious
8. DHTB Don't have the bandwidth
9. IHMB I hate my boss
10. SLAP Sounds like a plan
IHMB beats out L8R (later), LOL, and OTP (on the phone)? Sheesh, I'm glad I don't have a boss.
