An acronym of "Instant Peace Out", IPO.

As explained by a pot smoking friend of mine, when cops become suddenly present in a situation such as a party with illegal substances or underage drinkers, the term is used to respectfully and covertly state your intention to leave immediately without further question or discussion so as not to deal with the consequences of the situation.

An abbreviation for "in my opinion", most commonly used in text messages or Twitter updates when space is limited.

Can also be used in every day conversation, though is often intentionally condescending or laced with attitude in that context.
In a text message: "IPO, we should go to Mike's Bar- they have the best burgers, and I'm hungry."

In every day conversation: "Excuse me, but I won't do that. IPO, it sounds like a horrible idea. Let me know what it's like to narrowly evade arrest."

Initial Public Offering - IPO

The first sale of stock by a private company to the public. IPOs are often issued by smaller, younger companies seeking capital to expand, but can also be done by large privately-owned companies looking to become publicly traded.

In an IPO, the issuer obtains the assistance of an underwriting firm, which helps it determine what type of security to issue (common or preferred), best offering price and time to bring it to market.

Also referred to as a "public offering".
