1. What is an acronym specific to your workplace or profession? (students who don’t work: What is an acronym specific to your campus or major?)

OMG--we have kabillions: ALA, OCLC (technically, no longer an acronym, but it did start as one), MARC, RDA, LCSH...

2. What is an acronym you use a lot in your personal life?

OMGWTFBBQ. Thanx, Aims.

3. Internet acronyms are unavoidable, but what’s one you particularly despise, and what’s one you particularly like?

I'm gradually becoming annoyed by LOL primarily based on an email I received a few weeks ago in which every sentence was followed by "lol". I just wanted to bang my head on a wall. One I like is WTF. It's kind of an inside joke.

4. What acronym could you create right now for some regular annoyance in your life?

CTPMOR (Complainer Tech Pisses Me Off Regularly)

5. What would be a memorable or appetizing acronym for your most recent meal? (if your most recent meal was a BLT or SOS or some similarly acronymed food, please choose the next-most recent meal, smart alecks!)

Q&C (Quesadillas and Cookies). I'm all about health food.
