Acib

There is a classification of people within the population of Intantuians who are known for one thing and one thing only: They create Acronymns. They are all around you and me and they are relentless. If anyone has ever had experiences in the US Armed Forces, you know what I am talking about. For some reason, we have the inability to speak in full words. I agree. Most of our words are just TDL (Too Darn Long). Even where I work, if you say: "TMD TLA's", most people know what you mean. It's sad that those letters translate to "Too Many Damn Three Letter Acronynms".

Ever been into a chat room? The first time someone typed "LOL" I thought they didn't know how to spell the word "LULL", and I thought they were telling me that I was boring, so I left. After years of therapy, I returned to the chat rooms to find that it had gotten much worse. I do not know if the word hello stands for hello or "hey earn a little luck outside". It's all too confusing.

So, something had to be done, and I will begin my rebellion against these "ACIB"s (Acronym Creating Intanguian Being). Only by creating awareness, can we help put an end to this problem.

Oh, on a tangent, Wally from the comic strip Dilbert had the best acronym ever. He had a project he called The TTP Project. TTP stands for The TTP Project. If anyone can find this strip, please sent it to me. It's one of my favourites.
