Ah, yes, another friendly denizen of the netherworld? I wonder if you ever
provide any useful information, or just sarcastic and bombastic invective?
No, I see that sometimes you do. Maybe you're just singleing me out?

Well, since you left this as an "exercise for the reader"...

After a few false starts, I found a netizen acronym list, when I tried
"netizen acronym list" the 3rd hit was:

You sign your posts with HTH (hope this helps) when they are often snarky
sarcasm. If the real intention is to save bandwidth, you should leave HTH
off altogether, since it contributes nothing.

BTW, crack open a dictionary once in a while, and learn to spel (whipe?)!?

A truly helpful (not sarcastic) reply would have been a one liner with a
pointer to the dictionary, or even "look for netizen acronym dictionary",
but I suppose that is not as much fun for you, is it?

I guess we all contribute to the kind of community we want to build.

(yeah, like hell)
OK, OK, acronyms and "kewlspeak"... (yawn!)

p.s. I had to let this simmer for a while, before I was calm enough to go
back and take out my own invective. Flame certainly heats things up!
