Talking Just sayin ...... why not interpret your posts for we weak of mind?

So many of these posts have abbreviations, such as TV, TT, etc .. while many are easy to decipher, some not so much ......

Take a moment and use complete words?

TV and tv still gets confusing but normally the context lets you figure out if you are talking about a Tow Vehicle or a TeleVision.

IMHO, abbvs R OK. Y not?

I admit I was always curious why new trailer owners always need new televisions, the realized they need new tow vehicles.

Acronyms are good for the environment. You know, instead of wasting electrons by typing "Dear Wife", you can go green and just use two letters DW.

OH !!!

Well it is some of my business, if I'm trying to interpret what is posted. So there.

As for trucking ..... alphabet soup was invented by the government .... I chose not to drink the kook aid ...

I'll endeavor to stick to complete words ......
