So you're a jerk anyway. This FUBAR. I thought acronyms had to be pronounceable, like NASA and radar.

According to George Carlin, you're right.

[nfreeman]

You mean you don't mentally pronounce "OSP" every time you read or type it?

[PASabreFan]

According to George Carlin, you're right.

In any case, no one pronounces “OSP” — it is pronounced “Oh Ess Pee” — yeah?

[darksabre]

In any case, no one pronounces “OSP” — it is pronounced “Oh Ess Pee” — yeah?

For sure.

In their heads? I am going to go out on a limb and say no one has ever pronounced OSP, in any way, out loud.

Leaving aside inky’s reason for wanting to scrap — yeah, inside one’s head. It’s Oh Ess Pee.

Backronyms are (almost?) always pronounceable, otherwise there's no point. Acronyms not so much, as FCC, NSA, IBM, TBN, and HHDCRGDDB show.

LMAO - he builds a lawn for, what,  1000 ft on a lakefront, substantially altering the environment - and then whines about geese.  That has NOTHING to do with property taxes or the town of South Bristol.   IF I buy a house in the woods in South Bristol, and I have problems with nuisance  squirrels getting in the attic, should I qualify for lower taxes?????  Ridiculous!!  Waterfowl control is thru the State and the DEC.   The town doesn't have a damn thing to do with it.  Go to the state, idiot - not the town!

If I were on that town board, I'd tell him to go pound salt, and stick his money clip where the sun doesn't shine.  South Bristol 30, 40 years ago, used to be a nice, laid back farming/rural town before all the upscale Richie Rich's and Scrooge McDuck's invaded.
