acronomise

To make excessive usage of TLAs in written communication (especially IM and text message), in order to reduce the number of key strokes required to express oneself.

A contraction of "acronym" and "economise".
"I do acronomise heavily, but that's a function of my laziness, not wishing to type things like 'laugh out loud' in full all the time."

acronymatic

writing and speaking in acronyms, often personalised and familiar to a small group of people.
Marge: So Wally says to me, like, "I heard that you and Shirl talk in code?", and I go, like "Ya. That's so 'acronymatic' code to you!"

Shirl: Ha! Like, that is SO nosey. S2S (snickers to self). Did you hear from Trev already?

Marge: I SO did. D'you know he had the cheek to tell me that he so didn't want me seeing anyone else even though, it was like, HE broke it off with ME? I was like WTF? (what the fuck)

Shirl: God, some guys are such jerk offs. And, like, what did you say to that?

Marge: I told him to rack off.

Shirl: You are SHRN. (so hot right now)

Marge: Ya! And he is SGRN. (so gay right now)

Shirl: LYWM (love your work Marge)

Acronympho

Someone who uses acronyms in text messages, emails, AND in regular face to face conversation in excess. Generally annoying and makes you sound like a teenage girl or a fag. Also can be used by someone who turns random phrases into acronyms or shortened words because they think it makes them sound cool or smart, which it generally does not.
Kathy: "OMG like WTF, I was AFK and TTLY forgot to TOMX blah blah blah.."
Chris: "SHUT THE FUCK UP! God damned acronympho!"
