Guide to abbreviations..

nonsmoker

Don't know if this has been done before but there are so many abbreviations in some posts and I don't have a clue what they are.
Could we put them all somewhere, like a dictionary we can refer back to it if we get stuck

Wtf - what the f*ck
Btw - by the way
Imo - in my opinion
Imho - in my honest opinion
Afaik - as far as I know
Lol - laughing out loud
Rofl - rolling on floor laughing
Idgaf - I dont give a f*ck (im guessing)

Very true actually, but I get sick of explaining that to people so I just STFU and go along with it

From my small experience in family law matters I'd imagine that is a phrase that is used rather frequently in the parenting forum
