Acronyms and what they mean?

Sometimes when reading the posts they are full of acronyms and sometimes I can figure them out and something I just has to guess; such as what does DH mean - Dedicated Husband, Dumb Husband, Dear Husband, Dedicated Household? Give out some examples. LOL!!!!!

I've been asked about my 'user name' . . . it means "Girls Raised In The South" and "Southern Ladies Under Tremendous Stress."

I'm probably the first one because I leave about as far into the Deep South as one could get, SWGA; and, trying to lose weight has been a lot of the latter.

    I like the term TGR
    Meaning tooth to gum ratio. Used in a sentence like "that girl is really cute and all, but her TGR makes it look like there is a civil war going on her mouth.

    IIFYM- a diet/lifestyle that encourages you to enjoy all foodstuffs in moderation, as long as you have enough calories/macronutrient room for it. If It Fits Your Macros, enjoy!

    On the scrapbooking websites I'm part of, DH = Dear Husband... so maybe it's the same here?

    Okay, I've been wondering about some of the acronyms I've seen used on the forum. I'll keep checking back to find out.

    This thread occasionally gets pinned/stickied in the Getting Started Message Board. I would recommend bookmarking it so you can find it again.

    I really like using 'ffs'

    Wtf?

    professional... - Yep, I think most people know that one. LOL! I'm almost afraid to ask '_incogNEATo' what ffs means

    jaxass - funny user name and I guess UDCWIS either, huh?

    zcb94 - Honest or Humble - can usually tell if one is being honest or humble. Brutally 'honest' would probably be IMBHO! :smile: I don't count the macros; but, my granddaughter does. However, she was a freshman at college this year and she gained that "Freshman 15+"; but, she says she was not eating healthy either because she studied so much and had to eat on the 'fly'.

    fr3smly - so what is PSMF - I could figure out some pretty raunchy things using those letters. LOL!

    CyberTone - actually I am looking for the 'smiley' faces that move - not the ones that MFP would necessarily use.

    crawlzilla - T2G - that's funny.

    There's this fast food pizza place called A2M and people call it "A.ss to Mouth"

    I love acros. Isketch.net has an acromania room where they give you the letters and you write them out then all the people in that room votes on their favorites

    When I first joined I used to think who is this TOM fellow and why is he making things so rough on several ladies.
    But not long after I realized it meant Time of the month. :)
