If you're gonna have WAG then you need it's more precise cousin: SWAG - Scientific Wild A$$ Guess

not as applicable here but maybe in the rest of your life:

My boss is always trying to give me Special Hi Intenisty Training. You figure it out.

Yow! I'm not gonna get started on this one. I'm in the Army and deal with silly accronyms and goofy form and regulation numbers on an almost minute by minute basis. [:P]

Although I had been wondering what SWMBO was... Some Woman (I) Might Bump Off?

Big ROg

All I could come up with at first was "Some Woman Making Best Offer," which made it sound like she could be replaced at any minute. I didn't think that that was right!

Here are a couple of my favorites that I haven't seen here yet, but could be applicable in the right situations:

TANSTAAFL - There ain't no such thing as a free lunch
YGWYPF - you get what you pay for
IMWTK - Inquiring minds want to know
IGSC - I get so confused

Over here, usually in relation to when something is wanted / may arrive:

DHYB = Don't Hold Your Breath
INHMB = I'm Not Holding My Breath

My old girl friend used to put on the back of envelopes:

SWSSTKTDTS - Sealed With Sufficient Slobber To Keep The Dang Thing Shut.

TTFN - Ta Ta For Now.

One I've seen around here lately that I don't know is NAP?

Anyone clear that one up?

Bob

[Otter]

WIFM-What's init for Me
responce:
NAFTA-Not A F$%#*ng Thing A#$%ole

[timewizard]

NAP maybe the Netherlands Auxiliary Police? Or at least that's as near as possible to the real acronym as I can get.
Two that we use at work a lot are:
LIFER - Lazy Inefficient Foulup Expecting Retirement
STBY - Sucks To Be You, we use this one a lot at "whine" and jeese" parties. (Like when someone who makes 200K whines that their beemer didn't come in the color they wanted. usual response "jeese, sucks to be you!)[:I]
hope this helps, its JMTCW (Just My Two Cents Worth)
