Three Letter Abbreviations

Post by Ratpick_2000 » Mon, 21 Mar 2011 11:25 am

I'd like to start a protest against TLA's in Singaporean society. I have no idea where the PIE is and have zero interest in being alerted to the fact that the interchange with the CTE and KPE exits are blocked because the ERP is in operation. Furthermore, I suggest five letter abbreviations going forward - the PIE is FUBAR would be a more entertaining way to warn people of impending traffic on the silly motorway.

All those in favour say AYE..

dammit :shock:

Why would you want to travel via the AYE?

SMS, you stand for everything my anti-TLA movement represents; with your three little initials - I'll mind you to keep off this thread with your rhetoric. We don't need your sort round here..

Why would you care, what PIE or AYE stands for? Its for riders and drivers like us. If you drive, you should get hold of the Basic theory test book and read it fully and understand it before getting behind the wheels.

If not, just shut up and wait for your next M.R.T :P
