SRP Dialect

Hello SRP,

I'm stumbling over some of the keystrokes and terms used by SRP members. It's got some to do with my inexperience in online forums in general, some to do with my inexperience with straight razor shaving, and some to do with the limited time we've all got to read and post while living the rest of our lives (wish I didn't have to have a life outside of shaving and SRP, but you know...).

If you've got a spare moment, please post an acronym or abbreviation that you use along with a short definition, especially the obvious ones...

SRP - Straight Razor Place

RAD - ? (something to do with razors)
HAD - ? (something to do with hones)
OP - ? (original poster?)

Thanks!

All of the various ADs refer to Acquisition Disorder. Most of us suffer from multiple disorders.

OP can be original poster or original post. You've got the others already, and that link Carrie posted should help a lot too.

Check out its section which is also new.
