Backronyms
While some are amazed at the genius of “Stuck on Stupid,” Exploding Aardvark points out that it’s an established military backronym for SOS. Wikipedia has a list of that and other backronyms.
My favorites:
- H2SO4 (sulphuric acid) - Hot Hot Searing! Ouch Ouch Ouch Ouch!
- Yugo - You’ll Usually Get Out
- Nike - Needs International Kids Employed
- KMFDM - Kenobi Made Farmboy Do Magic
- RESPECT (George Galloway’s party)- Recently Expelled Scottish Politician Endorses Communist Tyranny
- USA - Unbelievably-Sized Arsenals
