Edit: for that matter, "LFG, LFG!" is a grammatically correct acronym sentence.
Thanks, I hate it. xD

Acronyms are a pet peeve of mine. Basically useless and now you need tribal knowledge to understand what the hell someone is talking about.
They say /c/fuck_ai butttt damn for ambiguous acronyms…

Man I love CP, if only it didn't take up so much space on my hard drive.
When one piece fans have hyped up the villains for Water Seven but saying u are excited to see CP9 is way too sus

Lol, my running group uses "CD" for cool-down. I'm always confused as to why and how they are cross-dressing for 2 kilometers.
Look I use CD for cooldown too, but in different context lmao

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.

CD is Change Directory!
No, that's "cd".

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.

For those people you want to know that you care enough about them to wish a good morning, but not enough to type out the full words
That's what bugs me about that one.
Saying "good morning" or "good evening" or whatever is a salutation. It's not conveying any real information, it's just ritual politeness. I'm not a big fan of ritual politeness. But, if you're going to do it, don't half-ass it. To me, it's impolite and insincere to half-ass or abbreviate a greeting.
I feel the same way about "GG" and "TX" for thanks. Do it right, or don't do it at all.

My latest one was rq.
I thought it was a typo.
It stands for 'real quick'.
I read it as Request...which was close enough to work.
