I love that every group I am a part of has their own list of acronyms that we use to communicate more quickly with one another. Not just ‘txt spk’, or abbreviations, but letters stuck together which stand for other things. I decided to compile a list of said acronyms, just because they are COOL! And I love weird things like this!

Pastor’s Wives Acronyms
PW – Pastor’s Wife
PK – Pastor’s Kid
CM – Church (or Congregation) Member
SP – Senior Pastor
YP – Youth Pastor
WL – Worship Leader
WTF – “Welcome to Facebook” – used very tongue in cheek, obviously!

Blogger Acronyms
GFC – Google Friend Connect
FB – Facebook
NB – NetworkedBlogs
PR – Public Relations
GC – Gift Card/Certificate
TMI – Too Much Information
CMO – Canadian Moms Online
WW – Wordless Wednesday

Quilters Acronyms
GFG – Grandma’s Flower Garden (pattern)
DWR – Double Wedding Ring (pattern)
DJ – Dear Jane (pattern)
FQ – Fat Quarter

General Acronyms
MIL – Mother in Law
FIL – Father in Law
SIL and BIL – yah, you can guess those
WTH – What the heck?  (or other variations)
JSYK – Just so you know
KWIM – Know what I mean?

One from ‘back in the day’ that my best friend and I still use today:
LYLASA – Love you like a sister always!
(Thanks for the reminder, Val!)

It seems like I could keep going.  Some of the ones I’m thinking of are commonly used in texting (BRB – be right back; LOL – laugh out loud; afk – away from keyboard; etc….).

last one:
ROFLOLSHIKMSOADMT – Rolling on the floor laughing out loud so hard I knocked my sombrero off and dropped my taco.   (hehe)

What acronyms do you use? Share ’em here!  Remind me of the ones I’ve missed, too!
