“OK, we need the business-to-business year-to-date return on investment as soon as possible.”
“Knock out the Bachelor of Science or you’re short on luck.”
…well, why else would he be toting a big stick?

Reminds me that sad but true we recieved an at our office with an acronym that no one knew its meaning. Maybe, part of their new techspeak language.
Well, maybe PDQ we would be all better off to KISS.

anon, IMHO stands for “in my humble opinion”. I thought SOL stood for “sh*t out-a luck”, and BS was “bull sh*t”.
PS: I want the “reckless bus driver” cartoon on tee shirts.

I know this is remedial, but what does LOL stand for?

LOL - Laughing Out Loud.
Try using it in your everyday speach, instead of, you know, actaully laughing out loud.

Melman: YTD= year to date. BtoB means Business to Business. ROI =return on investment. ASAP = as soon as possible. Business speak vs. IM speak.

This is so gr8! However the “B-to-B” could be shortened further to just B2B (as per late 90’s/early 00’s dotcom speak).
I wonder if someone could tell me what the title of the cartoon “TGIF” means?? For some reason my brain keeps translating it as “WGAF” (as in “Who gives a f*7k?”)…

TGIF is “Thank Goodness It’s Friday” (or thank god it’s friday).
Loved the cartoon! Or should that be LtC?

The response is “Knock out the bullsh– or you’re sh– out of luck, in my humble opinion.”
Translation is as follows:
“OK, we need the business-to-business year-to-date return on investment as soon as possible.”
“Knock out the Bachelor of Science or you’re short on luck.”
