OTD - ?
BTT - ? (classifieds)

I'm a computer guy, but still a bit old fashioned, and I don't understand all of the acronyms.

otd= out the door, total price paid out the door
btt= bump the thing, used in the classified to bump the ad to the top, most classifeds have a rule on how many bumps and when you can bump. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

FWIW IMHO BTT could also be Bumped To Top. Just picking, icdux, to use the others.
FWIW = For What Its Worth (not the Stills version)
IMHO = In My Humble Opinion (disclaims a multitude of sins)
re Dfariswheel's cartoons: ROTFLMAO

BTW Acronyms are only acronyms if they can be pronounced like a word, otherwise they are just garden variety abbreviations.

WAG (Wild A$$ Guess) an opinion based on no information. EWAG (Educated Wild A$$ Guess) an opinion based on some experience or information. I use WAGs and EWAGs until a smarter person shows up. This does not always happen.
