... you're the one insisting on using your own made-up acronym ...
I didn't know you were the authority on acronyms, nor did I know there was an authority-at-all on acronyms.
I'm not… but neither are you. In case you missed the point DVD-BOY and I were making, the “BD” acronym was established by the companies that developed the technology, and is the accepted acronym for the format. That's been the case for years before you “solidified your opinion on BR vs BD vs BRD” (whatever that means) and isn't really open for debate.
I will say there is truth to having acronyms be understood, however we're commenting on BD vs BR on originaltrillogy.com. With the context provided, if you didn't understand I meant Blu-Ray with BR, then you're not as intelligent as I thought.
No, I'm pretty dumb. I tend to use words and terms that I know other people will recognize, because it's my understanding that is how this whole “language” thing works.
You can reply to this post, however I will refrain because this has now gone off-topic.
Go have a nice day.
Aw shucks, I was hoping that you could actually give your reasons for despising the acronyms “BD” and “BRD” (I'm sure they're very amusing), but thank you very much for the last word.
And I shall indeed have a very nice day.
