I've seen TL;DR used as Too long; Didn't read. So it's like a short summary of what was written.

I love BYC articles, check this one out.. Have you seen it already? You might book mark it to refer others to, or even consider posting a review and or make edit/addition suggestions to the article authors If you have a chance, noting I didn't screen them for date written..

SS is Speckled Sussex in relation to chickens according to MY understanding.

I'm sure context is always relative and relevant. We speak in abbreviations super often in life. Medical, sports, cars, etc.

Here's another article..

A couple I had to figure out.. and use sometimes may already be included in the links posted.

SMH- shake my head, and
YMMV- your mileage may vary.

This one I quickly glanced and reminded me when I learn what the 3 S's..

Lets throw a glossary of term and definitions in here..

I hadn't heard honest opinion.. I wish it could be taken that way! I've decided to leave the H out most the time as it just SEEMS like cocky patting one's self on the back or could easily come off that way.

Hope this helps your cause of simplifying your BYC life while adding to the discussion and silly banter!

I thought SS was screenshot??? At least that’s what I’ve always heard it used for. Or Speckled Sussex. the rest I’ve heard and use though.

Same.

In My Humble Opinion.

I thought it was "In My Honest Opinion."


Oh, and ETA "Edited to Add"

Unless your in an airport or talking about traveling or somehtnig, then it means "Estimated Time of Arrival"

But you'll see ETA used as "Edited to Add" a lot here on BYC.
