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.

    “ofc” doesn’t stand for “of fucking course”

    edit this was supposed to have a question mark:

    “ofc” doesn’t stand for “of fucking course”?

        I am so confused. It seriously doesn’t mean, “of fucking course”? I never knew and I don’t think I can retrain my brain to think otherwise on this one. I was raised by an uncouth teddy bear, so fuck is just a sort of normal word for me.

        Today I Learned.

      This reminds me of OOF: Out of Office. Like with automated email replies.

      Shouldn’t it be OOO? But nope, it’s OOF.
