    Have you mastered the new speech ACRONYM ? ...

    If you haven't then you're behind the times. It's like Newspeak.
    As a kid you had to learn your ABCs.
    Now as an adult you need to learn the new version of the ABCs:
    There are the Government acronyms like DOJ and FBI, and there are
    the conversational acronyms like LOL , FISH and BOLO.
    And the Political acronyms like NAACP

    Government acronyms and abbreviations are used in almost every field and level of government, including government agencies, organizations and programs.


    Personally, I haven't the faintest idea about what most of them mean,
    but I thought the original LOL meant Lots of luck, which considering
    the sorry state the world is in, might be a better choice than laugh out loud.
    What's there to laugh at, except Biden ?

    They left off the main one that applies to them: POS

    So many departments. So many desk jobs where nothing is being done. So much wasted money. So little accomplishment. So much overhead. So much big government.

      Always thought dreaming up acronyms was the job of Master/Senior CPOs.

        The constant creation of acronyms gives gainful employment to thousands of bureaucrats who otherwise would have nothing to play with but their sex organs.

          And the sex organs of others, mostly of the same sex.
