I do try to excuse/apologize whenever I type something like HUNH or WILLCO, but it's a pain. Only the most exceedingly decent would feel the need to excuse or apologize for the excessive volume of a properly capitalized acronym. Fortunately for us, you are exceedingly decent.

It's merely a pain. 1st thread I've noted where unloading would be on-topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I ever remove arse from sofa and finally get my support group going for those mourning the true definition of the word literally, I'll be sure to message you privately. (Wait, though... is HUNH not a properly capitalized acronym? Should we just start a grammar nazi sub in All Things Considered and continue this conversation/get the support group started there?)

War Eagle, anyway. actually HUNH is a properly capitalized acronym, and POS is a properly capitalized abbreviation. Latter is not an acronym unless it's to be pronounced "poss." (another peeve, while I've got the proper stage) War Eagle back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to respond just ignore me. I came at the quote and it's hypocrisy as it was stated originally...I just played off of your repetition...I think the ALL CAPS stuff is silly...
