Mine is OOO for Out Of Office. I always misread it in my head like a ghost and it takes me a few seconds to process. It also doesn’t translate to speech—you have to say the whole thing.

Interested to see if others have similar acronyms they beef with.

    I take it the Language Council serves a similar role to the Spanish or French Academy of Language, and that it takes a prescriptive attitude, correct?
