HMACYFIAS

How Many Acronyms Can You Fit Into A Sentence

Pronunciation: H-mak-ee-fee-us

Use: Query, exclamation of surprise. When a string of quality acronymy is verabalised, it is etiquette for fellow acronymists to show their respect by shouting, "Ah! HMACYFIAS!", and raising their glasses. Could this be the ultimate acronym?

Origins: The founding members of Club NWAB were attending a lemonade session at the Albion Hotel, that home of all things acronymaic. Doylie had decided to record the evening's best acronymy on the back of a TAB form. Young M Po, struck by inspiration, grabbed a TAB form and a biro and started scribbling frantically. Triumphant, he raised the paper and shouted, "HMACYFIAS!" A legend was born.
