As much as I may despise the US government and what it stands for, I wouldn’t create a government agency that spells out a cringe acronym, like MAO (the Military Administartive Office) or some dumb bullshit like that, it’s always cringe when a Bill purposely becomes an acronym

Idk it tickles my brain in a good way. Especially this one, given Musk's history with Dogecoin.

Don't get me wrong I'm not a muskbro I just like funny acronyms and alliterations.

Kind of makes me wonder what other organisations and things throughout history were originally named after some kind of in joke or meme that has been lost to history.

I took that habit from Dwarf Fortress tbh. Every megaproject or spanning organization must either be acronym'd or backronym'd with a dwarf-themed, Doofenschmirtz-esque name that explains what it is and what it does.

I physically hate knowing the blood emerald melon man does the same thing.
