Mine is OOO for Out Of Office. I always misread it in my head like a ghost and it takes me a few seconds to process. It also doesn’t translate to speech—you have to say the whole thing.

Interested to see if others have similar acronyms they beef with.

        When I did ceramics for non art major, I would listen to that on repeat for 2-3 hours at a time. No drugs. I would just zone out, sculpt, throw some pots, and play with nice relaxing clay. Tangentially related, have you seen Children of Men? You get Court of the Crimson King and some other music references about, like the giant floating pig.
