    Acronym Free Friday

    The Association Against All Acronyms (the AAAA) has declared this Friday an Acronym Free Friday.

    As you will be aware Acronyms; whilst saving time & ink, also waste an inversely proportional amount of time by impeding communication.

    Please this Friday refrain from using Acronyms in your place of work and recreationally.

    Also as a mark of respect if all owners of 80s/90s sprotbikes could place some tape over any KIPS / EXUP / YDNS / ATAC / YPVS / TSCC and so on fairing stickers for the duration.

    Thank you that is all.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Have the AAA been consulted. Aussies Against Acronyms took the lead in this matter years ago.

    LaKwant is an acronym I made up a few years ago, it is pronounced La Quant (if you like) and is a popular saying.

    Oh no. TGIF is cancelled? And we can't have POETS day? It'll take us the whole W/E to recover from the disappointment. The instigator of this crime should be awarded the DCM.
