RTomMcCoy It has become acceptable for acronyms to use any letters within a word, not just the first letter.

E.g., ORNATE = acrOnyms fRom noN-initial chAracTErs

But why stick with whole letters? In my new paradigm CLIP, an acronym can use any curves or line segments from the base phrase! pic.twitter.com/xWABLVjL8N

kathrinpassig Aber was ganz anderes, ich war offenbar bisher erfolglos in meinem Beruf als Heizdecken-Influencerin und ihr wisst immer noch nicht, dass Heizdecken VIEL weniger Strom brauchen (60-100 Watt) als Heizlüfter (1000-3000 Watt). Siehe auch techniktagebuch.tumblr.com/tagged/Heizdec…

MisterABK Wow, less than 2% of people working in coal mines identify as conservative! I guess that means coal mines are structurally biased in favour of the left. No, I haven't thought about this before, this is my first day on earth. I am a baby.

MisterABK I love the way hot countries have lore around fans, like not sleeping with the fan on (or you... die?). An Egyptian friend once yelled at me: "Don't stand right next to the fan, you'll get a chill! Didn't your mother teach you?" My mum's Scottish. It never came up.

mathemensch Ich finde es ist falsch und moralisch verwerflich wenn die CSU kleine Welpen umbringen will und Markus Söder sich mit ihrem Blut einreiben möchte um dann nackt durch Passau zu rennen und Layla auf bayrischem Dialekt zu singen mit einem panzertapefixiertem Maß Bier in jeder Hand.
