11. I'm glad I'm not alone!
I too was like :wtf: does MSM stand for?! Madison Square Morons? No, that ain't it...

Is there a legend here on DU for these abreviations like that?! If not, that would rule! I can't tell you how long it took me to figure out LIHOP and MIHOP! OY!

Lu Cifer, I too missed that day in school...cuz I skipped class to go smoke out!

7. Methylsulfonylmethane
Methylsulfonylmethane is what jumps to my mind first. A good place to consult these sorts of things is http://www.acronymfinder.com/

9. It's a freeper abbreviation for Mainstream Media..
...but it seems to be very common on DU for the last month or so.

Hmm...wonder why?

10. It's a handy shorthand - nothing demonic there.
There are other freeper faves that are a bit more telling, like "You've been pwned."

They all copy each other, very conformist. Makes them easy to spot.
