Fun fact for the day:
Acronyms are only acronyms when the letters are pronounced as a word. E.G: NASA, GIF, ASCII When it's NOT pronounced as a word it's an initialism E.G: FBI, CPU, etc. --- "No. I'm a man so theyll get me a full size McDouble." - DuncanWii https://imgur.com/cSxy3Od ... Copied to Clipboard!

Fun fact for the day: Oh for sure. Will I ever call them the proper name? Probably not because people would just ask wtf i'm talking about and then have to explain this again. It's more of a "cool thing I learned" post. --- "No. I'm a man so theyll get me a full size McDouble." - DuncanWii https://imgur.com/cSxy3Od ... Copied to Clipboard!
