DOA
Dead On Arrival. We brought him in, workda his ass, but he was daid!
I love that term, and I love a good acronym, iffen that what they are called. I forget the proper Anglais. Some more I like?
BYOB
NIMBY
STFU
I am stupid and lazy. I need a get rich quick scheme. You know a good acronym? Let me know. I'm thinking there is a book there. Nothing serious. Something to read on the shitter.
Of course, I could submit the thing, and it would be DOA. Publisher might even tell me to STFU.
Risk, reward.
One of my paramedic buds is fond of the one they use for a long dead corpse, just discovered: DRT, or "Dead Right There"
Posted by: og at February 1, 2006 11:40 PMHow could you forget the iconic acronym of all time: SNAFU "Situation Normal: All Fucked Up?"
Posted by: Gerry N. at February 2, 2006 4:44 AMOh holy crap man....the military lives it life by acronym's....it gets old...trust me..haha..
My husband constantly speaks to me using acronym's and I'm just lost half the time...maybe I shouldn't blame that bit on him but...ya know :)

Posted by: bedamned at February 2, 2006 7:33 AMAs a long-term employee of the Great Corporate Salt Mine, I am way too familiar with acronyms of all shapes and sizes. But they do have their uses.
You got SNAFU and FUBAR in the comments already, but there are plenty of others:
MEGO - Mine Eyes Glaze Over
IMHO - In My Humble Opinion
ROFL - Rolling On the Floor, Laughing
ROFLSBCSS - Rolling On the Floor, Shitting Blood Clots the Size of Softballs
MELLTBOLB - My Eyes Look Like Two Baseballs Of Lean Bacon
WSMFM - Who Stole My Fuck-Monkey?
Posted by: Elisson at February 2, 2006 9:24 AMElisson has a Fuck-Monkey?... Hmmm.... Where can I get one?
Posted by: livey at February 2, 2006 11:20 AMI like the one from the Dilbert cartoon: YSLE - You Stupid Lemon Eater. As in: "When Life Gives You Lemons, Choke on 'em and Die, You Stupid Lemon Eater."
Not you personally, of course.
It's not exactly a full-on acronym, but Tango Uniform is a goodun. TU stands for either "toes up" or "tits up," meaning daid.
SAHM - Stay At Home Mom (the bestest kind!)
WTF - What The Fuck?
WTH - Who The Hell?
I also second the nomination for DRT.
(Post Script: I humbly submit that you, dear sir, write a post to discover why so fargin many people insist on using extraneous apostrophes. Where did this idea come from? I know it wasn't taught in school, even if you had the misfortune of attending a gubbamint school. "Acronym's" is possessive, dammit- "acronyms" is plural. I'd post it myself, but no one reads my blog.)

Posted by: Bane at February 2, 2006 5:28 PMRE: Apostrophes.
The "apostropuppy" as my son called it when he was four, is a Newspeak symbol signifying the imminent presense of an "S." It is to be inserted before every "S" in anything written my any certified ignoramus, moron, idiot, or Journalism School graduate. But I repeat myself.
Most authorities suggest anything with more than two misplaced apostrophes on a page be inserted into a shredder along with the author. Feet first preferred.
As you were.
