My husband says that poetry is like modern art. Anyone can do it. He likes to rhyme. When our teen grandson who lived with us during the first year of the pandemic started to use acronyms the hubby did too.

The grandson’s acronyms were LOL, LMAO, OMG, ROFL, BRB, SMH, TMI, OO — old one, etc. The hubby added YAAM — you are a monkey, NMM — never mind monkey, MYOBM — mind your own business monkey, OY — oh you, for example.

Listening to them was similar to having two teenagers in the house!
