Acronym

An acronym is an initial abbreviation that can be pronounced as a word, such as NASA or WASP. This term is also used to refer to a series of initials pronounced individually, such as FBI or TGIF, but the technical term is initialism.

Afronoob

Someone who is really tall or good at sports, but doesn't like to use it to their advantage.

Not to be confused with an Afrostar, who uses their height and skill to their advantage all the time.

-Look at that guy on the volleyball court, he's 6"8, but he's playing the back row!
-Wow, what an afronoob!

Afronova

The most overplayed DDR song ever. Commonly played by DDR 3rd Mix and DDR USA fanboys when they go up on a DDR Extreme machine and go, "WTF?" at the songlist. V (for EXTREME) looks non-played compared to that.

But factually, the song is an African tribal style song, running at 200 BPM. It made its debut on the game Dance Dance Revolution 3rdMIX. It was the first song to run at 200 BPM or more, besides PARANOiA Evolution, which debuted on a "Solo" version of DDR, namely DDR Solo Bass Mix.

Difficulties:
Beginner - 2, Light/Basic - 5, Standard/Trick - 7, Heavy/Maniac - 9

OK, I can beat Sakura (Heavy), Burning Heat! (Heavy), and Rhythm and Police (Heavy), but I still can't beat Afronova (Heavy).

Acronumb

Acronumb: (adj.) to be thoroughly put off of a conversation due to its acronym content. The state of being so bored by a conversation that you could not understand, even with a dictionary and a geek translator.
(v) to be put off of a conversation inundated with the use of highly technical acronyms and jargon.

Dude, I was standing in line and these two Computer Science guys started talking...within three minutes, I was acronumbed.

Oh man, I was reading this military website, and I had to wrap my head around how they acronymize everything...by the end of the first page, I was acronumb. Too much acronymonics is just not a good thing if you are trying to entice kids to join the armed forces, they might develop acronymphobia.

I am always amazed at the way that your socially awkward cousin manages to be so damn acronymious, even at a party! I mean, a girl even tried to talk to him and he made her acronumb! What a geek!

Will you stop being so damn acronymatic? There are cool people here, and you are going to make them acronumb.

acronymrod

Those who profusely string together acronyms or abbreviations as part of normal speech.

Wow, I don't think that acronymrod can form sentences with real words anymore.
