I remember a reddit post that apparently still makes me rant. Something something MGK at MSG.
What the fuck? Metal Gear Ketamine at Monosodium Glutemate?
MGK is Machine Gun Kelly, fair enough, but MSG is Madison Square Garden?
Go fuck yourself! One venue in one city on one planet does not get ONE three letter acronym!
MTG is another one that triggers me. I would rather see more MTG in the news than the MTG news I’m seeing these days.
We don’t see enough of the Muppets Theater Gang, I agree.
I saw it on a sign once and was hella confused why the school board was discussing either Magic or Ms Greene. It was Meeting
Hard hats must be worn during all staff MTG. -the MGT
Didn’t you hear? The next set will be Urza’s Congress and will feature the other MTG as a 0/1 red goblin with “Tap to prevent enemy from attacking. ‘Her mad ramblings cause even the most stalwart foe to wander off in confusion’”
I’ve never even played MTG, and I still hate that the acronym is now associated with some idiotic politician.
Is the politician that muppet looking blonde bitch?
That’s the one, yup.
When is magic the gathering in the news?
Meh, MSG has been MSG since way before MSG was MSG.
Michael Schenker Group?
No. MSG.
Magnificent seven: Gundam?
No. MSG.
I find it weird that your okay with some dumbshit musician getting is his own acronym but not one of the most important venues in one of the world biggest most influential cities.
Mmmm MSG, my magnificent e621. How I do very much love e621. There’s a great fan site for it!
What’s the other CNC? Command ‘n’ Conquer? 🤔
Edit: Also would add PnP to this list. As a techie, I immediately think of Plug’n’Play. But it has an entirely different meaning on dating apps/personal ads.
Consensual non-consent
Is that a joke or are people actually saying this?
It’s a consensual rape fantasy kink. It was actually featured in an episode of House.
So it’s just a rape fantasy, bloody say that instead of something stupid like cnc.

No consensual non-consent is a real thing, it’s a specific kind of sex roleplay
I guess “rape play” was a bit too forward
People still use that term too, but the R-word can be a bit triggering to a lot of people, I think it helps to have a different term to call it that emphasizes that it really is consensual even though the fantasy you’re playing out is that it isn’t
Saying rapeplay is also a thing. But CNC is usually broader
It’s a real thing. If you have a very trustworthy partner it can be a lot of fun, from either perspective.
it’s a common term on fetlife, yes
Command and Control in the infosec world.
The servers that control botnets.
last i checked those were just called C2
What’s the other meaning of PnP?
Party ‘n’ Play. It’s code for sex while on meth (and possibly other drugs; here it’s meth)
Makes me sad, my hardware is too old to be PnP-compatible
You’d be surprised, the toll gets higher and the risks are greater but that definitely doesn’t stop everyone regardless of age.
Everywhere I’ve heard it used, it’s specifically meth!
Huh.
I guess that makes it obvious which PnP I’m more familiar with…
Thats a new one to me. Would scotch and weed count?
I think that’s just referred to as a “good time.”
Having to open Urban Dictionary is more shameful to me than knowing these terms. I guess I’m old now.
A very useful tool for those of us out of the loop
I was a CNC operator for years before I heard the other meaning for CNC. Now when I see online discussions about CNC all I can think is “that slutty Mazak”.
I’m gonna go call my Haas a dirty little whore.
“Yeah you like that don’t you. Yeah gobble up those chips. Oh you’re so messy you got coolant eeeeverywhere”
To be fair I don’t know what the other meaning of CNC is, I just like freaking out the apprentice.
I just like freaking out the apprentice.
A worthwhile endeavour.
Oh you’re so messy you got coolant eeeeverywhere"
She’s soaked, look, you can see her drip.
I work in engineering and only kow about the real CNC (ie machining). What’s this other garbage imposter acronym stealer?
“consensual non-consent”
Rape play.
Every time I see EDM thrown around my brain reads it as Electronic Death Metal. I know that’s not what it means, but I wish it did.
Oh yeah, it definitely means Electronic Dance Music… or maybe Electro Discharge Machining. Who’s to say
Make it a thing please, I’ll join you if I can convince enough friends
Not strictly death metal but…

This is excellent, thank you!
Here’s another one! Alas, not death metal specifically, but electro+metal!
The number of people who’d post on r/CNC (the machining one) looking for the other thing was low, but never zero…
Maybe your therapist knows that some play rape and cock and balls torture WOULD do you some good and you’re just not hearing it. Kevin. Goddamn.
Anyone into me? Did I hear that right?
Username Czechs out
Classic UCO situation. Or Ucho, as we would call it.
Please also be mindful before trying to abbreviate “sales & marketing” in company emails.
Ok so I see what the CNC one is, but what does CBT stand for? Cock butt taint therapy?
Cock and Ball Torture lol
What is cnc?
Consensual non-consent. People into rape fantasies.
Ah throw me into a back of a van kink. Fair enuff.
Command and conquer
I work as an accountant and my old boss - younger than me, mind you - always abbreviated the intercompany accounts (Due to/From) as DTF. To this day I have no idea if he was trolling us or really had not heard the acronym used, he never once broke.
to be fair three-letter acronyms are only a problem on windows
I think my kvm and nic I’m using also suggests hardware is also affected.
I had a civil service job working at a hospital. Three letter abbreviations were my life
I used to work at IBM. We have used all of them, including letters, numbers, special characters, whistles and cartoon characters.
Is there a site that lists all of them for comparison. Sounds doable. Just links to wikipedia.
consuming neck cartillage?
Probably Consensual non-consensuality, a BDSM practice
Source: am CNC myself
Just kidding, my CNC stands for “ChaoticNeutralCzech”. Actual source
