Mine is OOO for Out Of Office. I always misread it in my head like a ghost and it takes me a few seconds to process. It also doesn’t translate to speech—you have to say the whole thing.
Interested to see if others have similar acronyms they beef with.
My least favorite is IANAL (no pun intended), my favorite is RTFM, I use it a lot!
BofA is ugly but it’s mainly a US thing, no one else uses it.
lots of people use bofa! >!bofa deez nuts!<
Spoiler tags work a little different here. Try this:
::: spoiler lots of people use bofa! bofa deez nuts! :::
the tags I used work fine for me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Gotcha. The tags didn’t render for me (I’m using Jerboa on Android)
That’s not official though
They don’t work on the Lemmy website, I guess your app is doing non-standard stuff
I can only read it as “I Anal” and the teenage boy in me giggles and I forget what I am reading.
Get him out of you RIGHT NOW
What do they mean?
I think IAnal is pretty obvious. Pretty sure BofA is sexual too. 🤷♂️.
In case anyone wants the real meanings: I am not a lawyer, read the f***ing manual, bank of america.
Interesting that they’d censor the word in the acronym
Crazy that your name is an acronym/initialism.
RT*M
You are the mom those 90s articles about AOL lingo was about
IANAL is completely 100% totally entirely not obvious. At all
