Ancient Ways Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 If we type them out you still won't know the acronyms. Figuring them out is a nice exercise in thinking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorraine Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 (edited) I'm the one that's most out of touch with all things modern and new on here, and even I can figure out most of them. If you don't know, ask. Nothing wrong with asking questions. To the exasperation of many here, I ask questions all the time. :) Edited November 21, 2015 by Lorraine 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthemic Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 yes, clearly it would kill them to type out the words. actually i think it's an excluding thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, when will I progress to the next level? I need goals see. That is all. I think Segue put a list of the Rush acronyms up somewhere, I will try to find the thread. I'm with Lorraine, ask as many questions as you want! After a long day (and 23 yrs x 3 kids x 10 plus animals) I have lost brain cells and also still have to stop to think: PeW? PoW?? PW? MFH?? (My Favourite Headache, Geddy's solo album) WTF??? :D :D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never forgot being chastised because I could never get the Grace Under Pressure one right -P/g? G/p? By the time I figure it out and remember which one is correct, it is faster to just type Grace Under Pressure. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why can't every album be short and concise like 2112? No problems there. That Rush group is so rude sometimes! :D 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleMoon Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 It would make sense to learn the ones for the specific albums just on general principles but what other ones are used specifically here? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Gypsy will tell us the ones she was wondering about; I was wondering if it is just the album ones also??? I can't think of too many other ones that really get used much, maybe IMO ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to tell. I've been on other forums that had a lot more forum specific shorthand or abbreviations than this one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
