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.

I don't really like it when people use acronyms when talking about music albums, it always takes me far too long to figure out what they actually mean.
Special shoutouts to TDSotM and ItCotCK.
The Dark Side of the Moon
In the Court of the Cock KingWell played
I’m actually at a loss here, help me out
ItCotCK is actually In the Court of the Crimson King by King Crimson
When I did ceramics for non art major, I would listen to that on repeat for 2-3 hours at a time. No drugs. I would just zone out, sculpt, throw some pots, and play with nice relaxing clay. Tangentially related, have you seen Children of Men? You get Court of the Crimson King and some other music references about, like the giant floating pig.
I'll have to give that a watch then, thanks for the recommendation
Weird that it was so close. I told my brain to locate the album for that acronym and it tried for a while, felt close, failed, then came up with that "clever" joke to fit the acronym.
So I must have known the album and just couldn't pull it
