tbt because its the most common
cuz tbt bells
but btb makes the most sense awk
 
I'm trying to get used to BTB, but I admit my mind still goes "nope, it's TBT" most of the time, haha.
 
BTB makes much more sense, but I use either TBT or TBTB. TBTB seems better since it means "The Bell Tree Bells", whereas TBT is just "The Bell Tree".
 
I've always used TBT, I mean BTB does make sense to me, but it is wayyy too much of a change to get used to. I think the most logical to me is TBTB and I think people could get more used to that than BTB honestly
 
I still end up using TBT merely because I am used to it. My fingers just start typing it, lol.
 
for the grammar nazis out there!

isn't TBTB (the bell tree bells) grammatically incorrect?
I don't think you can put 'the' as part of the intialism/acronym/w.e?

ie: In the United States..... = In the US.... (not TUS)

Yeah, probably.

Which is why people should use BTB. (Bell Tree Bells)

Hmmm...yeah TUS looks stupid. But, I'm embarrassed to even ask this, but is the name of the country (in which I live :/) United States or THE United States? Pretty sure the official name is just United States, hence US as an abbreviation.

BTW, I pretty much will only get used to BTB if everyone starts saying it and it goes into my brain. I'm such a follower. :p

OH, and also I think abbreviating The isn't that weird since for example you can google "TVD episodes" and it takes you to The Vampire Diaries episodes...but also "VD Episodes" works the same.
