A group of researchers named a test "SNOT".
Of course they did. They LOVE acronyms. I had one where there was a SALSA and a GUACAMOLE.
Angel: He is dead. Technically, he's undead. It's a zombie. Connor: What's a zombie? Angel: It's an undead thing. Connor: Like you? Angel: No, zombies are slow-moving, dimwitted things that crave human flesh. Connor: Like you. Angel: No! It's different. Trust me.

I had a another guy who was so proud of himself because he managed to make an acronym that was basically three acronyms deep. Like, one letter of the acronym stood for another acronym, and one letter in that one stood for a third acronym.

Oh, meeting will not end. And now my coworker and boss are bickering about the meaning of the word "done."

Camel case is BULLSHIT.
I may need more coffee. I didn't expect to have such a strong reaction to that. (But it IS.)
