PAEC
An acronym for "Parental Advisory, Explicit Content". A warning label present on music albums that contain words that are not kid-friendly.
A: You ever realize that a lot of acronyms are not in Urban Dictionary?
AR: Yeah, I'm currently making a definition for an acronymization of that warning label on album covers and records and whatnot. It's called Parental Advisory Explicit Content, which when acronymized turns into PAEC.
B: Pretty strange TV and Video Games have a multitude of age ratings for mutliple different age demographics while music only receives one advisory label.
AR: Excellent observation! I believe music gets only one label for non-family-friendly lyrics because the only thing that mature lyrics is just saying swear words and mentioning coitus and/or drugs. Meanwhile Video Games and Movies and TV needs to have these different age ratings due to the fact that with this medium which involves seeing stuff, you can see violence, sex, nudity, drugs and other non baby-friendly stuff. Let's also factor in that video games are interactive so online play, in game purchases, terrible moderation that makes the game a virtual version of Little Saint James (i'm looking at you Roblox).
A & B: Wow, we partook in a tiny discussion about age ratings when this was supposed to be an example of a word being used in a sentence.
AR: lol
