> [@Justin\_Bailey](#): > > 1. You can’t remember the acronym (MMORPG), but you know what the acronym stands for? I remember which letters are in it, but I’m never sure what order, or what exactly MM stands for. I know I can go look it up, but frankly it’s not important enough to me. When I see some thing that looks like that acronym, I know it means one of those games where a bunch of people all log into a server and shoot each other up. Or whatever. (Not dissing it; go ahead and have fun with my blessing! Just not my cup of tea.) ---
