My least favorite is IANAL (no pun intended), my favorite is RTFM, I use it a lot!
BofA is ugly but it's mainly a US thing, no one else uses it.
I can only read it as "I Anal" and the teenage boy in me giggles and I forget what I am reading.
Get him out of you RIGHT NOW
What do they mean?
I think IAnal is pretty obvious. Pretty sure BofA is sexual too. 🤷♂️.
In case anyone wants the real meanings: I am not a lawyer, read the f***ing manual, bank of america.
Interesting that they'd censor the word in the acronym
Crazy that your name is an acronym/initialism.
RT*M
IANAL is completely 100% totally entirely not obvious. At all
