Congrats to Sameer Mishra Scripp’s 2008 National Spelling Bee Winner! I was just thinking about words and spelling and I’m intrigued with acronym’s becoming words. I first noticed it with Payless and BOGO (buy one get one) about 3 years ago. Now I just noticed L’Oreal uses BIWI (because I’m worth it). I’m sure there are more out there…
ILPA - I love pronouncing acronyms

eww…I hate BIWI lol…it sounds so weird. But I definitely use acronyms too much. If you look at my class notes it’s a bunch of acronyms and symbols (@1st= at first, –> means next)
It’s really quite sad

I agree it sounds weird but I kind of like it, reminds me of kiwi
which happen to be one of my favorite fruits!!
Best,
Delphine
