It also doesn’t take much time to google. What does take more time is making two sarcastic and backhanded comments across two entirely different posts… No human being is expected to know everything nor every acronym. But people are expected to make the bare minimum effort to try and figure something out or if they ask someone for clarification to at least do so in a funny or polite way. You did neither. You came in with a really negative attitude and spread it across two different threads.
There are plenty of posts that name drop specific things or places or use acronyms that I’m unaware of. If it isn’t in the comments I just google it. If I am asking for clarification then I do so politely. Please try that next time instead of this really unnecessary bitchy attitude.
I would never, ever expect someone to have to Google something that requires local knowledge. I would absolutely not use an acronym that’s very specific to one country on an international community
I would’ve thought a prolific poster such as yourself would completely understand that!

It doesn’t really take much time to type the full name, you know.

Okay.
You have a nice day.
And I hope your day is as pleasant as you are.
That would be great, thanks.
