    It’s ridiculous how lazy people are today - especially that with autocorrect, it’s often harder to type the shortened version of something than to let it complete the thing for you.

    The CEO at my old company really likes the expression “Let’s fucking go” for some reason. Lots of “LFG” in the work chat. I guess he eats a lot of LinkedIn slop or something.

    But to me, “LFG” means looking for group. I’m sitting here like why is the CEO spamming for group content during the work day, and he’s not even saying what role he’s playing.

      Yes. It’s bare minimum to name our specialization and what we still need with each request.

      Let’s see if I still have my keyboard macro:

      “I’m a shitty under-geared DPS and I am LFG with tank, healer, and decent DPS”

      Yep. My keyboard macro still works.

      Edit: Self own aside, this approach did get me invited to the right groups.

          It’s pretty common in CRPGs (computer role playing games) and MOBAs (multiplayer online battle arenas) for an ability that you have to wait before using again.

        Really? I never would have thought Captain Planet would take up that much space on a hard drive. Are you storing fucking Captain Planet as a 4k video? It was a cartoon from the early 90s. I think 480p would be more than enough! Sure there were 114 episodes, but they weren’t that long. How much space can the complete Captain Planet really take up?

        That’s true, but it’s also true that within a small community sometimes acronyms are necessary. Like, imagine NASA:

        “Jones exited the AL in his AES but the C4ISP flagged an error either in the LSPG or WFCA.”

        vs.

        “Jones exited the air lock in his Anthropometric Extra Vehicular Activity Suit but the Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Information Systems Protection system flagged an error in the Life Support Power Generation System or Water Flow Control Assembly”

        Insiders can use the acronyms to be much more efficient. Outsiders probably wouldn’t even understand what they’re talking about even if they did spell things out fully.

        The only problem is when acronyms leak and what’s a well known and clear acronym in one group becomes a confusing one to another group, or worse is confused for a different acronym from a different group.

          If the intended reader is a regular person just use normal words, even if it’s not 100 % accurate.

          Jones exited the air lock in his space suit but the control system flagged an error with life support or water flow

          All three ways don’t mean much to me as an outsider, but the last one at least paints a somewhat understandable picture.

      I was talking with some friends about Dune stuff (after the recent game came out) and was mentioning stuff in the books. I had used the name before, but I type CoD once and they were confused why I was talking about Call of Duty, but it was Children of Dune.

      And they’re usually such worthless abbreviations and acronyms that save next to no time. Unless you’ve already defined your acronym or someone mentioned it immediately before you, you’re just confusing a smattering of people.

    Interestingly, I had a manager twice my age who texted me like that and eventually I just started doing it too. Oh well

        The fact that someone would shorten ‘good morning’ to ‘GM’ and go through the trouble to put it in all caps bothers me
