    The highest percentage of my posts on this site are probably complaining about acronyms.

    Thankfully, I'm finally lightening up enough to just laugh about it; sometimes I'll read the Side Project thread just to chuckle at the unbroken collection of capitalized letters.

    IRS being a variation of RIS, or do you have something else in mind that is not tax related?

    And the FF has me stumped this morning. What's it?

    Back in the 00s GFWCIPA was common for me to use. It was a very good beer that profoundly changed beer culture.

    I see POG pretty often these days. It's the slushy version of DDH I think...
    Some acronyms that should be in use:
    CDB? DBSABZB. OIC.
    PTSNJL! IM2.
    For our Spanish speakers in the house:
    SOCKS

    Most of the shit in the Limited Trade forum is like hieroglyphs to me. I don't bother looking it up . I think of it as art school grads speaking 'artspeak'

    For some reason I pictured the name of that brew in Bottle Logic's font and tricked my brain into writing that.

    Isn't POG Passion Fruit-Orange-Guava (aka hype flavor for slushies... or Minute Made juices)

    IRS being for (Stone's) Imperial Russian Stout. Typically, of course, it's RIS but I see many people in here abbreviate it as IRS. Also it's Fou' Foune lol
