Porksalter

Filed under: — peter @ 9:21 am

A few months ago I downloaded AIM onto my computer in a futile attempt to help make my boring days at work somewhat more bearable. Before AIM, I would spend my free time at work obsessively cleaning my glasses and keeping up on fingernail maintenence. Now I get to spend those hours chatting with some of my friends. I’ve made some new friends - Geof, Rhonda, Sarah, Dave, and Michaela; I sometimes chat with my high school friends Dane and Erik; and sometimes I’ll even chat with my brother Patrick.

Over time I learned all the little acronyms and AIM-isms like “lol” and “brb”, and I even learned the difference between “haha” and “hehe”. However, sometimes those aren’t enough. In the spirit of making my AIM chats more efficient, I am introducing some new acronyms that can be used:

IYFP: I yearn for pudding
IAOTD: I am off to defecate
TIASAMD: There is a squid at my door
BSHJBATNPFC: Bob Saget has just been awarded the Nobel Prize for Chemistry
IACS: I am currently squatting
TPNMS: This pork needs more salt
ISWTFAM: I someday wish to father a mule

These new acronyms will improve the speed and efficiency of chats, while still allowing us to touch on such universal topics as unspiced pork and land-moving squid. Any other suggestions?

    Oh Whoops You already got that one. Hehe, I see you get tired of typing that one yourself. I feel your pain brother. (now if only I could make Bob Saget feel that pain…)

    DBASAD- Don’t be a smart-ass, Doug.

    Scotty - great minds think alike.

    IICDLDIW: If I could date Lloyd Dobler I would.
    All women get really tired of typing that one. Please add it.

    Hello Maren,

    I myself find Lloyd to just be irresistable as well. Here’s one of my favorite “I Love Lloyd Dobbler” Sites. Enjoy. Perhaps you could add your own comments there.

    YGABH!—You’ve got a big head!

    Thanks for the link, Scotty. I do love Lloyd, but
    unfortunately, I do not love him THAT much. Sorry, pal.
    ILLBNTM (I love Lloyd, but not THAT much)

    Can Rachel Wells and I start a blog where the only
    entries are acronyms? We’d like for the title to be
    an acronym as well: ABDTMHI (A blog devoted to
    melonchologically heightened individuals).

    TBWBAJTRIS. CRAMSIOBWBAD.

    That blog would be a joy to read, I’m sure. Combining Rachel and Maren’s strangeness into one blog would be a delight.

    IJHTPLMBR: I’m Just Happy That Peter Listed Me Before Rhonda.

  13. Chris (from L.C.) Says:

    Holy crap. I just peed my pants.

    Um, HCIJPMP!!!

    (where do you come up with this stuff, Peter?)
