YABA
/ya'b*/ [Cambridge] Yet Another Bloody Acronym. Whenever some program is being
named, someone invariably suggests that it be given a name that is acronymic.
The response from those with a trace of originality is to remark ironically that
the proposed name would then be "YABA-compatible". Also used in response to
questions like "What is WYSIWYG?" See also YA-, TLA.
