Lady across from me? Nice girl. Thing is, she's been yappin' on her celly exclaiming, 'OMG!' after almost every sentence. Have we gotten so lazy that we now must resort to using acronyms in our daily speech?

Same number of syllables, so I don't think it's laziness. More likely she doesn't realize it's an acronym, she thinks it's a word.
ReplyDeleteMy 14 y.o. daughter speaks in acronyms daily. TMI and OMG are all I ever here. She's also started with VEX. She won't tell me what it stands for.
