Ot- ?
Apparently I am not up on the latest abbreviations. I keep seeing OT in subject lines, but I have no clue what it stands for?

Hi! It stands for Off-Topic--just something to say that the thread is not directly adoption related.

Or if you see it in a post can mean off topic from the discussion itself.

Here's a thread that explains a lot of the abbreviations you'll see...

It means "off topic", and indicates that a person is going to mention something that is not adoption-related -- for example, a request for suggestions about a good hotel in a certain resort area or opinions about brands of mini-van. Some people prefer not to deal with off-topic stuff, and won't bother reading a post if the OT designation appears.
