What is your least favourite acronym?
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.

My least favorite is IANAL (no pun intended), my favorite is RTFM, I use it a lot!
BofA is ugly but it's mainly a US thing, no one else uses it.
