PICNIC. problem in chair, not in computer.

obscure corporate jargon like KPIs (key performance indicators), KRIs (key risk indicators) which, after having thrown them at me during an interview for a college intern position, made the interviewer wonder why i got so flustered. i would hesitate to throw any acronyms around in any interview, let alone for a college student.

by the way, i got the internship. the acronyms weren't even used in my position.

GABOS.

Prison lingo. Acronym for 'Game Ain't Based On Sympathy," first heard in the Louis Theroux documentary "Miami Mega Jail".

Louie: Don't... don't you feel sympathy for that person? For that other inmate you extorted?

Inmate: GABOS, man... GABOS.

BofA

Not me but my spouse hates recursive ones, like GNU. Hates them so much, active vocal expressions of dislike. Anyways the setting I'm making is filthy with recursive acronyms for no reason.

I hate "lol" as punctuation. If you're legitimately laughing out loud, fine. But, I really hate:

"can I show u something lol"

"I gave it to David lol"

YWNBAM/YWNBAW. Besides being transphobic (it's short for 'you will never be a man/woman'), I always automatically attempt to read/pronounce acronyms as if they were words, and this one sounds really stupid.

not an acronym, but 'Est.' as in 'Established xyz'. i read it as 'Ever Since The/Time'
