I’m running into this more and more with BSD (Berkeley Software Distribution) and Bungo Stray Dogs.
I was wondering if anyone else has run into anything similar?
DNF: Disjunctive normal form, Dandified YUM
I put DNF stickers on items around the house, to remind myself that not everything exists for sexual gratification.
It’s Did Not Finish in racing
D2 is either a type of steel or a great game in 8th grade.
LFG used to mean Look For Group in a lot of games. Now it’s let’s fucking go.
LucasFilm Games
LoRa - to me it’s Long Range Radio and has been for a decade. It has some fucking AI slop meaning that recently came up, now.
CBT
Cock and Ball Torture and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy.
for me cbt means changed block tracking. I used to work on developing vm backup software
🤣
CNC :(
AC – alternating current, ass crust
DTF – downtime failure, discreet time fourier, down to funkyland
SMB – server message block, some mammamia bros
IANAL – i am not a lawyer, sure you do
never thought of the anime as bsd. sorta funny. I have to admit magic the gathering became so popular all of a sudden in the news.
Isis used to be the fake spy agency Archer worked for. Damn those middle-eastern radicals stealing the name!
Before that, Isis was an Egyptian goddess and a hot superhero with crossovers to Shazam
Right? Archer’s Isis didn’t replace those, just made them more Accessable
Acromyms form words. You mean abbreviations.
It’s weird seeing news articles about the SEC that have nothing to do with college football.
You mean size exclusion chromatography, surely.

Not annoyed, but i enjoy annoying red hats by taking about how much I appreciate BLM. As soon as they start spouting off I start talking about how we camped on Bureau of Land Management land out west and it was great.
Alternatively, how Brennan Lee Mulligan is a great GM
Also Game Master > General Motors
I read GM as Grand Master (chess). You’ve bastardised it now.
Grand Master (chess) > Game Master > Literal dog shit > General Motors
Better? ;-)
Perfecto.
Muchas gracias
The Linux Kernel has a specific one, whereby DRM doesn’t mean Digital Rights Protection, only thing I could think of.
That one’s especially egregious because the Direct Rendering Manager handles displaying things to the screen, where you might have Digital Rights Management involvement in the form of HDCP support, etc.
yeah, I still get confused with that one
Not annoyed but amused. I suffer from IBS. And in my work there are Internal Business Systems. So I suffer from IBS twice.
SRS/GRS is absolutely everywhere as an acronym. It stands for Sex/Gender Reassignment Surgery
HRT too (Hormone Replacement Therapy)
I’m aging myself here, but WoW used to stand for “Winds of War”, an expansion for Heroes of Might and Magic IV. Then, World of Warcraft was released…
