    As long as as you don’t use ETA as an abbreviation for “edited to add”, you are ok. That shit was suddenly everywhere on reddit, god darn kids and them fancy ambiguous acronyms!!! shakes fist at clouds

      I used to tell people I’m about 5 minutes away when they did that on Reddit. Ask for my ETA I’ll give you it.
