[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because it would be significantly more confusing if we used H, W, D, S, etc. The Dx signifies that you're referring to a family member in shorthand. Do people say "YMMV" or "LMAO" in real life? No (or at least I hope not). It's just an easier way to communicate when half of us are typing on iPhones, and likely breast feeding/trying to free themself from a toddler clinging to their ankle, etc. [/quote] This. The letter D is really just a marker to make the shorthand clearer. It boggles my mind that this is not obvious to some people.[/quote]
