An abbreviation of the word abbreviation. Tweens and adolescent girls in general are known to use abbreviations of words such as "jeal" for jealous "quest" for question etc. They needed a common word for describing the language of talking in shortened versions of words.

abbrev ev 

The abbreviated version of the words "abbreviate everything".

This is a movement among the younger generation, mostly with the goal of either shortening a text message, blog entry, forum comment, Facebook status, or tweet.

Some choose to "abbrev ev" because it can be quite funny if executed properly.
"I'm on a mission to ABBREV EV."
