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.

    London, UK. Ghee is an everyday word. So is Bombay Aloo.

      Dang. As an Indian-American, I rarely hear non-Indians say “ghee,” and the few times I do on YouTube videos, it’s always “ghee butter.”

        I’m a pasty, old, white man and even I’ve got a half-full can of ghee in the fridge. I know you don’t have to keep it in the fridge but I’m short of cupboard space.
