I'm not sure if this has been addressed anywhere but I really need help understanding the lingo on this forum.
What does the following mean:
IMO
BCOA
BYB
DH

Any other abbreviations you can think of please post.
Thanks!

As I understand it, the 'D' as in DH can also be darn or damn, depending in the context and the posters state of mind:p (ie....after first posting "damn neighbor", any following references are merely stated as DN)
