acronyms

I like acronyms. They are part of everyone's daily lingo. Two ways to go with this...Take a well-known acronym and show clever alternatives, e.g...

FBI is most commonly known as Federal Bureau of Investigation

There is also:


The other way is to share less commonly known acronyms.
My favorite acronym saying is RHIP:


There is also
DSL

IDB


So, please add yours, entertain us all.

Re: acronyms

ID10T (ID-10-T)

Not an acronym but it's something that you can say while on a tech support call which sounds technical but basically means that the user is... you know... an idiot.

Re: acronyms

You "like" acronyms? Like, is it a hobby?

Thenextlee, FUCK is actually an acronym. Back in the medieval ages, people needed the king's blessing to have sex, since they were worried about over population (something we should look into today). FUCK actually means "Fornicating Under the Consent of the King".

Re: acronyms

Acronyms can useful when used within a specific situation but as a technician, I find people who use them when they are only specific to their own job or product line nonsensical.
A few good ones
FUBB - "Fucked up beyond belief"
FUBYOYO - "Fuck you buddy, your on your own"

A good site for acronyms www.acronymfinder.com
