Acronyms

If this busy life has taught us something which can be useful and at the same time so very detached, it has to be all these Acronyms! But no matter how useful they are, acronyms piss me off more often than not...

I can still make my peace with short forms like FYI and such which are used in professional conversations.. I dont use them usually, not even while sending SMS, but I guess it is okay for others to use them if the like... Its the terms like Bye Bye, Good Night, Good Morning, Happy Birthday etc. which when shortened irritates me to the core!I mean these are meant to be "Wishes" for others, isn't it? If you do not have 15 seconds to type the full word of about 20 letters then you might as well not wish the person. What is the need of saying such things, just for the sake of formality!

So please have the courtesy of writing the complete words next time you wish someone Good Night or such...People might call me old-fashioned but I think in today's fast paced such small things can go a long way in letting your loved ones know that you still have time for them! :-)
