I can't stand when I hear certain hosts saying The OG for the original.

Especially since OG means Original Gangster.

I remember when Maureen from Tarte use to come and present her  products. Shawn whom most of the time I like would call her "Mo". I couldn't stand it.

I totally agree @Sooner , I once asked a poster here if she was being charged per letter on her phone/computer because she abbreviated so much! Is it so hard to spell out the word? E R for earrings, really? The number 2 for the word to, too or two? I could go on.

@JaneMarple , kind of off topic, however, when I read your last sentence, I've noticed a lot of people don't even use the 3 different ones correctly.  On my Facebook page, many people only use the word "to" when it should read, for an example, "me, too", not "me, to.

I guess it comes from back in the dinosaur days when I was a secretary.

I think it's laziness and acceptance of everything under the sun.

I really think people like to be part of the in crowd and have "to heck with those who might not know" attitude.

Oh my goodness, I use that for Olive Garden.

When texting i sometimes receive a single emoji and I'm stumped. No idea what it means.

It may be that the ones abbreviating so much and using shortcuts are typing on their phones?
