Can I just say...

how much I detest the fact that I cannot truly abbreviate "Save The Date" in a classy manner?

  • STDs (the fun ones!)
    Don't worry guys, I have the Wedding Police AND the Whambulance on speed dial!
  • StD - maybe the capitalization helps it?
  • I don't have any ideas for you but being the whacko that I am I sent DD a text last week to ask her how her and her FI's STD was coming along. (We NEED to get those suckers in the mail and she doesn't like the E pics they had done so she is getting another picture done).  She told me I was a pervert.

    Can I also add that I detest the abbreviation for Bridesmaids BM is short for bowel movements blech!
    It also stands for breast milk.

  • I work at a large company and someone or several people put together a excel file of acronyms used at the company and their meanings and context... the list is over 10k long and counting, it is always interesting to see how many repeats there are and how different the meanings, no wonder we confuse new people.
  • Let me just tell you that when I first started lurking these boards.... man oh man for a few minutes I was shocked. LOL

    ( kind of kidding.. I really didnt think everyone was talking about the other kind of STDs and bowel movements... and I still giggle evey time I use one of those abbreviations!!)

  • This made me laugh! Every time I see STD I don't immediately think save the date. I'm trying to train myself to think "Save the date" but my brain wont cooperate.

    I used to use StheD.

    Some random poster called me out about the abbreviation once. That was the entire contents of her reply to some question I asked when I was putting ours together. Whatever, grumblepants. I kept using StheD until just a couple months ago when I finally got too lazy to type the extra two letters.
    Hmm, I think StheD is worse than STD....
  • I can't even abbreviate best man or bridesmaid because I have IBD and also frequent a message board for that ...

    "I'm not a rude bitch.  I'm ten rude bitches in a large coat."

  • Is there a list of the common abbreviations?  I keep doing a search and this thread is the only one I've found that comes close.
