Technically an abbreviation is not an acronym unless it's a pronouncable word e.g. RADAR and NASA and LOL are acronyms; RT and TMI are not. I have heard people pronounce ROFL but when saying OMG they always say each letter individually so that doesn't count as an acronym.

This is Gr8. I remember the first time a client put in an email LOL, I thought I wonder if he knows it means "Lots of Love"....of course, I was the one that laughed out loud when I realized what he was communicating. While I believe he "loves" the service I give him, I learned quickly we were both LOL!! Thanks Diana. This is Gr8.
