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.
People in my old company used to genuinely say dub dub dub as in “double-u double-u double-u”. Fucking dicks 😂.
I never understood why it’s called double-u. It looks more like a double-v. Most of the time, the sound in words is even more similar to a V than a U. There is probably some reason in ancient versions of the letters.
It’s the correct way to speak a URL… dub dub dub dot something dot com == https://www.something.com
Correct way is to double-u, not dub.
