We’re really unbelievable. Us as humans I mean. Ages ago we had sign languages and weird sounds as a way of communicating with each other. As generations passed, we invented words that could express things more vividly. And now we’re backtracking all those efforts, heading back to stone age with words like ETA, ASAP, FYI, FYA, AFAIK, etc. Weren’t we better off then having not taken the trouble to have so laboriously built words from here and there?
