    For some reason it bothers me when people make a word out of abbreviations, but mostly for graphic and computer terms.

    Like:

    jpg = jay-peg
    gif = ghiff
    url = earl

    = annoying

    i'm a dork and never abv in conversation. you sound much smarter:

    "hey dude i got your Joint Photographic Experts Group file ready for upload"

    "anyone got that Hasselhoff Graphic Interchange Format file?"

    "please direct me to your Universal Resource Locator"

    etc etc.
