Hello fellow acronymizers.
Slambo:
Hello everyone. I've been reading (and submitting a few) apronyms here for a while. Now it's time to delurk and introduce myself.
I've been collecting computer acronyms for some time and have created a page devoted to humorous acronym expansions of computer terms <a href="http://personalpages.tds.net/~slambo/acronym.htm>The Real Canonical List of Humorous Computer Acronyms (TRCLHCA)</a>. My interest in humorous acronym expansions goes back some time as noted in the introduction on my page.
Now, to think up some more expansions for TRCLHCA...
- The Robot Cried Humorously, "Letters Creating Acronyms!"
- To Reacronymize, Change Hierarchical Letters to Curious Acronyms
- Try Recursively Changing Lingual Heuristics to Create Acronyms

Wlecome, and thank you, all contributions are gratefully welcomed, as long as they are apt, (or) funny, (or) literate (or) really, really rude :-)

This whole thing started because I didn't know what LOL meant, that's when we took up the idea of expanding our own humorous things one could put into emails.

The idea behind 'these; pages is that the acronyms be 'words' - i.e. pronounceable (in English). Your TRCLHCA looks like the name of a town in Poland!
Welcome.

And then Tony said:

So I replied:
But the site also has re-expansions of existing acronyms, and TRCLHCA is an existing acronym, so I think the re-expansions should be allowed.
Also, the really, really rude ones are not on the site, only the rude, really rude and rudely real ones!

But I noticed:
The first two are for TRCHLCA.
