Abbrevs R Fab

Abbreviations OMG (oh my God), LOL (laugh out loud), FYI (for your information), BFF (best friends forever), TMI (too much information), IMHO (in my humble opinion) and WAG (wives and girlfriends) have been added to the revised online edition of the Oxford English Dictionary last week.

Interestingly, muffin top, "which describes the protuberance of fat above the waistband of a tight pair of trousers," did as well. Read more here.


FYI, WTF (pardon my French) did not make the cut.
