Stop using LMAO

LMAO at a deeper level speaks to laziness.
LMAO takes 2 seconds to type.
Laughing my ass off takes 5 seconds to type.
Those 3 seconds you save with the acronym starts telling your mind that it’s ok to take shortcuts.
Your mind will look for shortcuts and shortcuts in the real world are not fruitful. Shortcuts come back and bite you because you miss the details.
“But it’s efficient.”
Sure… efficiency is something we should seek but it should not result in long term losses.
You gain 3 seconds back but you lose the ability to think in complete sentences and the ability to articulate your thoughts completely.
and emojis… ok, that’s a post for another day – BRB.
