Hmm....Explosive something Problem. What starts with an A and and could fit between there. I have to think on it.

It stands for "Excessive Acronymic Predisposition."

A lot of FReepers suffer from it. And a lot of overly pedantic types like myself suffer under it.

Yes, I agree🙂

I always do my best to explain any acronyms I use by spelling them out the first time - or else I just don’t use them, especially if they are particularly obscure.
