Edit to add
what? i always thought it was estimated time of arrival
what the hell does edit to add even mean ?
yeah that's why it gets the dumbass poohbear.
Edit to add, I guess
It's supposed to be 'edited to add'.
Yes, it's beyond dumb and I've only seen new people or women weirdly enough use it.
I've always wondered if it was a Tumblr thing.
Thank you! "Edited to add" is dumb AF.
Sophisticated bear could also be PS imo
I’d argue N.B.: would be more appropriate
That has a different meaning, though. It's Latin "Nota Bene", which means "note well", and it's used to draw attention to something.
Never seen ETA being used that way before. Thank goodness.
End a line with double space␣␣
where a line break should take place.

I think I've seen E2A to avoid the confusion but I'm not sure how much that helps.
