first time I experienced LOL was way back, Early 1990s. When AOL was still in 1.x for the Apple. My buddy and I broke into his brothers work computer and were playing around online in the chat rooms. They told us it was Loser On Line and it was a long time before I understood that wasnt what it was.... those jerks
I had a kinder experience and was told LOL was Leg of Lamb. That just left me confused.
AOL: Absent, on leave
All the time. Like at some point SC stopped meaning StarCraft and started meaning Splinter Cell. And don't let me get started about the famous roleplaying game PoE. Yes, or course I mean Pillars of Eternity and not Path of Exile.
bruh it's South Carolina
Lol, i can't think of PoE as anything but Power over Ethernet.

LoRa - to me it's Long Range Radio and has been for a decade. It has some fucking AI slop meaning that recently came up, now.
It's weird seeing news articles about the SEC that have nothing to do with college football.
You mean size exclusion chromatography, surely.
The Southeastern Conference was founded in 1932. The Securities and Exchange Commission in 1934.
It's not annoying, only quite funny, but every time I see CSM (Chainsaw Man) I can only think of Coño'e su Madre / Cocha'e su Madre (Motherfucker in Latinamerica).
BotW will always mean Best of the Worst to me. Zelda fans should just get over it and spell it out every time. And I like that game.
never thought of the anime as bsd. sorta funny. I have to admit magic the gathering became so popular all of a sudden in the news.
