The acronym that I have trouble remembering is SGE and then when I do remember it then I remember why I forgot it.

I notice them a lot more on family type boards where parents (especially mom's) tend to be. On the more technical boards I see them used a lot less.
I see them on a LOT of vacation planning type boards.

In current volcano terms, it's probably Big Ash Hat.
Big Ash is a common adjective among colorful speakers of American English.

Ditto. I was introduced to them by my wife who is on a board for women who were all pregnant at the same time. If anyone used those on the other boards that I frequent, I'm sure they'd get banned or at least ridiculed incessantly. :lol:

Add me as another who has always thought that! I use DH for my husband quite a bit on the boards, but in my head it is always Disney Husband. :lol: I don't think I've ever called him "dear". It took me years of using these boards to realize that people meant "dear", probably because I don't really use any other boards and had never seen it! So it just stuck that way for me.

Just as I had assumed. I had always wondered why BAH just didn't have anything to do with Sorcerer's Hat. Then, I figured it out and...

I personally always hear them in my head as "Disney Son" or "Disney Wife" when I'm on this board.
I think it is just so much better that way.
I am the same way. Dear Daughter and stuff makes me sick to my stomache. I am making sure I keep thinking Disney Daughter Disney wife. and so on. =]
Who uses abbreviations for some of those things??? lol

Personally, I like to write things out in full.
We can thank the internet for dumbing things down and teaching a whole generation of kids and teenagers how to spell incorrectly.

Or use text slang, that's a pet peeve of mine it's fine for texting but don't use it outside of texting...:shrug:Personally, I like to write things out in full.

I agree with that as well. There are times I'll use a quick abbreviation like ToT, but the majority of the time I prefer to write in full.
I think you're on to something about the spelling as well...extremely poor spelling is one of my biggest pet peeves. I certainly can understand the odd mistake here and there, but the people who constantly spell things incorrectly drive me crazy! Maybe it's just a Canadian thing

I know I'm way late but thanks for the post for us WDWM forum 'newbies' (including the links with the 'cheat sheets')! I've been a Disney freak for years and can often recognize the acronyms but there are a lot thrown around in the forums and some of them are hard to translate quickly :veryconfu.
