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.

Get the acronystic mug.Simply, "speaking in, or the language of, acronyms", including the abbreviated jargon of the particular subculture in which the acronymns develop. This results in different kinds of acronese, just like there are different languages. There are also unspoken rules of form in each subculture. So, in the IT world, TLA is a "Three Letter Acronym", but FLA is not a "Four Letter Acronym". That is too obvious, and would violate the unspoken rule that IT people are to look down and intimidate all other lesser mortals as inferior beings. So, XTLA is the proper form, an "Extended Three Letter Acronymn".
In computing acronese, the "IT Ten T" translates as "Moronic User Error". It is written as "ID10T!"
In the early acronese of letter-writing, LOL meant "lots of love". In acronese of social text messaging, it means "Laugh out Loud!" PIMP LOL means, "Pee in my pants laughing out loud!"
