Every profession has it's own lingo. They are full of acronyms. Probably medicine has the most. There are just to many to mention. My favorite is IHSS. Idiopathic Hypertrophic Subaortic Stenosis.

Sometimes I think the abbreviations are out of control. Try and follow a text message exchange between teens, it reads like a foreign language.

Nobody can beat the military when it comes to devising acronyms. The following is a little gem from a facility in San Diego that I worked next to when I was in the Navy: NTISA/JITF. That mouthful means Navy Tactical Interoperability Support Activity/Joint Interface Test Force. LMAO! (which means Laughing My A$$ Off!) And don't ask me what they did in that facility; if I had found out, they'd have had to kill me! LOL!

You forgot SNAFU and FUBAR
