Acronyms are fine when you are chatting on a site that is dedicated to a specific topic or your are in an industry that uses that acronym. It makes communication efficient.
However, when you step out of that world, its just confusing.
Try living here where they have acronyms for everything, including people's names.
"I was speaking with NKY about JBR and how he won't take the MRT to SMU."
It's bad enough having to concentrate to understand the Singlish but when the letters start to fly, I am totally lost.
