BFG, i think we all know what that means by now.

JFGI. Just Fuckin' Google It. To be used whenever anybody asks a question you can't answer.

That is a website now actually

If I remember right, FUCK originally used to be an acronym of sg. Can't remember what, though.
And damn, is it useful.

Fornicate Under Consent of the King. I don't believe that is the origin but that is the acronym you are talking about.

Are there any acronyms around that you just have a fondness for? For those who don't know what one is, it's a group of letters than represent a series of words, like:

COD: Call of Duty
LOL: Laught Out Loud
PC: Personal Computer

And so on...

But yes, back to the question. Are there any that you like, just because of their sound? I'd say one of mine would have to be COD (Call of Duty), because it sounds so ridiculously hilarious. But yours? Post and Enjoy!

LOL: League of Legends.

I stopped considering it Laugh (or laught) Out Loud the moment that came was announced.

[Lothae]

If I remember right, FUCK originally used to be an acronym of sg. Can't remember what, though.
And damn, is it useful.

yea it was originally a charge brought up in old court systems. For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge
Means exactly what you would think that it means

This etymology is an urban myth, the word actually probably comes from older Germanic languages. You heard it from Wikipedia browsing, folks. Fuck is not an acronym.

As for my favorite acronym, I think I'd have to say it's WoW considering how much time I've spent in there.
