Acronyms

Kelleyray · January 2015

Being new to the forum, I don't quite get all the acronyms used in the posts. I'm figuring out some but not all. Is there a key somewhere?

There is a dictionary somewhere, but it's outdated. Best thing to do is just ask. What are some if the ones you don't know?

No key that I know of. Post some of the ones that you don't get and we will help.

The first one that I didn't get was EVOO. I thought it was a brand name of a seasoning. I kept reading posts that mentioned "coated with evoo."

I found out that it means Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

EVOO= extra virgin olive oil
SPOG=salt pepper onion garlic
S&P= salt pepper
FTC= foil, towel, cooler
YMMV= your mileage may vary
IMHO=in my humble opinion
SWMBO= your wife
That's all I can think of at the moment

FORD - Fix Or Repair Daily. Found On Road Dead. Sorry, my Dad was an engineer at GM for 30 years. Those acronyms were not unknown around our house.
His rule was "If it ain't GM, don't park it in my driveway." In the 80's he softened a bit to only exclude foreign cars. He was dead serious about it.

@Jeremiah did a BBR (Burnt Beyond Recognition) last night and he's a little down this morning ... the good thing is that his pictures will be used in the future to scare little kids into leaving the BGE alone.

Good morning sir!
