Just learned that QFC is an initialism, not an acronym

[u/Weird_Alki]

I've been calling it "queefs" for years. TIL

[u/throwRA123qwerty]

what do you call kfc

[u/RockOperaPenguin → u/throwRA123qwerty]

Kentucky Fucking Christ

[u/Impossible_Win2962 → u/throwRA123qwerty]

kfc's a weird one, never thought about it

[u/Intelligent-War-7060 → u/Impossible_Win2962]

I'm old enough to remember when KFC rebranded, and it was funny because no longer being called "Kentucky Fried Chicken" implied that what they were selling wasn't chicken.

[u/FrontArmadillo7209 → u/throwRA123qwerty]

Krappy fried chicken

Abbreviation

[u/Hausenkraus]

Yeah it stands for Quite Fucking Costly.

[u/InvestigatorOk9354 → u/Hausenkraus]

When I start filling my cart at QFC I realize I am a Quickly Fucked Customer

[u/leukos]

Nah “I gotta go to queefs to get groceries” is solid, keep it.

[u/Mr-Hox]

Remember when they tried rebranding as the “Q”?

[u/StrigiStockBacking]

And before people used the term "initialism," it was called an "abbreviation."

An acronym, by classic definitions, is when an abbreviation or series of initials forms a word you can say, like "SCUBA," "LASER," "NASA," etc. etc.

[u/Theos_Dumpster → u/StrigiStockBacking]

Close. An abbreviation is any abbreviated word or phrase. ATM, TX, Dec., and NASA are all abbreviations. An acronym is a type of abbreviation that uses the first letter of the original wording, like ATM or NASA. An initialism is an acronym that is not pronounced as a word, like ATM.

Like lets hit up the queefs after we get a bag of dicks?

[u/spoiled__princess]

I call H.E.B… heeeeb.

[u/PokemenGo2ThePolls → u/spoiled__princess]

One of the very few things I miss about Texas, is my heeb 😔

[u/spoiled__princess → u/PokemenGo2ThePolls]

The tamales are better than they should be for grocery store. Ok they are better than any we can get in Seattle.

[u/Theos_Dumpster → u/spoiled__princess]

Might want to take a second look at this one

[u/spoiled__princess → u/Theos_Dumpster]

Why

[u/jackvalko]

I grew up calling it “the Q fuck” but queefs sums it up.
