I hear that a new order of Knighthood is on the tapis—O.M.G. (Oh! My God!)—Shower it on the Admiralty!

1917. J. A. F. Fisher Let. 9 Sept. in Memories (1919) v. 78

First written use of “OMG” on record in the Oxford English Dictionary.

(via allthegirlsarebummers)

Can we make “Shower it on the Admiralty!” an expression of surprise?
