    Abbreviation Help

    Is there a forum on here dedicated to all of the abbreviations some people use and some people don’t know?
    Right now I just need to know what “gs” stands for.

    I heard you should put that sticker on your van and park it in front of your neighbor's house.
    Some people are so judgemental. You can tell just by looking at 'em.--Some random meme

    Acronyms haven't gotten totally out of hand in my opinion. I have seen some with multiple meanings. People have become to lazy to say words! A fortune 200 company bought the company I worked years ago, they had a company dictionary for acronyms. There are some I can accept ok as they have been here for decades and where they make sense.

    People on here use them all the time and expect us to know what they mean.
    I just skip over them. Never understand why they just don't write the whole word.
