Acronyms are the world’s gift to millennials. It’s so much easier to talk nowadays. Don’t say the whole sentence; just use the first letter of each word and people will get it. Well… no, not really! We’ve all had a moment when you’re texting a friend or scrolling down Twitter, and you see an acronym everyone is using, but you have no idea what the heck it means. For example, there are acronyms like “BTS” (behind the scenes) or “TFW” (that feeling when) that you just have to google to figure out what in the eff they mean. If you’ve been through this, don’t fret, you’re not alone. In recent developments., people just found out that “MUA” means “makeup artist” and they are completely losing their chill. These tweets will crack you up:
So the acronym “mua” stands for “make-up artist” and not “municipal undergarment advisor” as I had previously suspected
