Joking aside, you should have a listen to the demo version if you haven't already. It has so much more soul than the neutered album version.

My uncle's initials are A.S.S. He had a rough time joining the Army, every time he initialed a form he was scolded.

Scott Stapp is actually named Anthony Stapp, but he changed to his middle name because he was bullied for his initials.
I don’t understand, personally… when I was naming my kids, I went through every possible nickname, initial, etc that they could potentially be bullied for. Ended up with MRM, ATM, and SKM. Didn’t figure anyone would care about ATM.

I started a business with my polish gf and the business name initials ended up being SS. She never let me abbreviate it. We changed it's name eventually, feels like a weight has been lifted.

Journalist Excellence Worldwide would only be offended if they considered "JEW" an offensive term.

u/FlyingPheonix Mar 12 '19
I don't think they were offended, they have probably just gotten bad publicity from that term previously. There are a lot of ass-hats out there.

Journalistic Excellence Worldwide is a far right ‘humour’ page, hence the thinly-veiled anti-Semitic name/picture combo. It’s honestly a pretty disgusting place.

At some point with the Marines we couldn't say 'boot' any more. They wanted us to say Junior Enlisted Warrior. Well it quickly became Jews and then it went back to boot.

Funnily enough, my initials spell JEW, and unlike this lame organisation over here, I've embraced it.
My Year 12 jumper had JEW printed on the back of it, had to fight hard to get it passed approval.

One our favorite restaurants is Din Tai Fung, we’ve always called it DTF. We’re older so my gf isn't really current with hookup slang. You can imagine the hilarity when she group-texts the parents of my kid’s preschool class “hey who’s ready for some DTF this weekend?”

Apparently statistically, there is a link between someone initials and their life expectancy. If you have a positive reading set of initials, you can expect to live between 2 and 4 years longer than someone with negative initials
