Acronyms and initialisms (thanks, JT) are the sh*t

Do you ever come up with nicknames for people you know or places you go to…or basically anything? Or do you just get too lazy sometimes to speak or type someone’s full name, so you refer to them by the first letters of their first and last name? Maybe you have a weak stomach and hearing or seeing a certain someone’s full name makes you want to vom, so you HAVE to use an acronym (or initialism) just to keep down your lunch. We do! All the time!

If we know you in any way, you have an acronym (or initialism). You might not know it (except you do now since you’re reading this blog), but you have one and we use it every time you come up in conversation.

Some of our favs: BB, SS, EJ, BCBAH (you don’t want to know – or maybe you do…), IMIWA (duh). We also know someone who has a cool initialism for a restaurant he frequents. LZR. Sweet. Good job.

Anyway, acronyms are the sh*t. We love them. Fun times.

Whew, that was close. I was worried your Top 25 education actually had evaporated at Joe's. :)
