I also don't see F/U as "follow up" and BM as "bridesmaid." Yay for Knot lingo!!

I wrote down "STD" on one of the wedding lists I was making and FI was like "um...is there something...you need to tell me?" and I was like "no...why" "...because you have 'STD' written down...explain..." lmao ^_^ best convo ever :P
Yea--I always think the worse! STD, F/U, BM...The Knot (or "TK") always brings my mind somewhere it shouldn't!
Aside: I guess it's "STI" instead of "STD" now ("I" for infection). Times, they are a changin'.
"It starts out all very nice, two people promising to be together forever, I'll die when you die, my life meant nothing until you used my toothbrush. Then you start planning the wedding. Aunt Junie's allergic to milk. Uncle Momo's off his meds..."

I remember when I first started posting, and saw a thread title with 'STD' in it. I was really wondering what I had gotten myself into. But, since I was curious and opened the thread, I was soon able to figure it out.
And I also keep seeing 'FML' when people type 'FMIL.'
It's sad, I have been on TK so long that I no longer think of STD as anything else. The funny thing is that I just sent them out and it's so hard not to type STD when I am talking to someone!
I do laugh at F/U and FMIL all the time. Really...F/U??!?!?
Thank you! I couldn't believe that everyone was seriously writing these things! I just kept giggling! I always like to tell people that I want to give them an STD and that my BMs are amazing!
I laugh at ALL of these. I think part of the reason that I decided not to send out STDs is that I just couldn't bring myself to do it after the association that TK has created with them in my mind, lol.
Oh, and here locally, TK 101 is the hard rock/metal radio station, and everyone calls it "TK." So everytime I see TK I get joint associations with tulle and Metallica. It's pretty hillarious, lol.
WnaBKaet will understand, I have this issue in the medical field too. Medical abbreviations are sometimes obvious and sometimes bizzare. SOB = Shortness of Breath, but that's not what I read "Patient was SOB..." Or sometimes unfortunate names. I've been told Melena is a nice (Greek?) girl's name but it is something...BM related...in the medical field. Its not "a good thing."
I don't see anything wrong with Tulle and Metallica!
thank goodness im not the only one who has thought this! im gonna have to leave the room im laughing so hard!(my fiance's sleeping and i may just wake him lol)

Silly abbreviations.
I will admit I never thought of the BM thing as anything but bridesmaid, but now everytime I see it I think of the other BM lol
