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

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.

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

The number of people who'd post on r/CNC (the machining one) looking for the other thing was low, but never zero...

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.
