I actually have no idea what people are going on about sometimes. I just don't bother trying to figure it out. This is basically how it looks to me:

(I have no idea if these example (fake/real?) abbreviations actually mean anything)

HTH
FWAS
FLPR
FPBL
WTW

They always seem to start with Ws or Hs, or Fs, maybe.

It's completely lost to me. What's wrong with the English Language ffs.

Perhaps we should have a thread sticky on abbreviations, contractions, initialisms, and acronyms.
