I don't know how many times I had to look up "SMH" before I got it.

Then people started using "SMDH", and I could start all over again, because you can't figure simple damn things out after a certain age.

Those are simple. SMH: System Managed Heraldry, SMDH: Shaving my dog here!

My partner thought “SMH” meant “so much hate”, and “SMDH” meant “so much damn hate”. It worked perfectly in every situation they heard it in. I taught them the real meaning when I realized this about a half decade into dating.

somehow my head

The thing that taught me this one was when people started writing smh my head. The stupid redundancy helped.

I always read those as somehow so I'm now stumped by "SMDH". It's starting to sound like a bondage thing.
