    NATO- North Ayy-tlantic Treaty Organization

    LASER- Light Ayy-mplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation

    SCUBA- Self Contained Oonderwater Breathing Uhpparatus

    FOMO- Fear ohhf missing ohht

    POC- People ohhf solor

    PIN- Personal id-entification number

    BOGO- Buy ohhn get ohhn

    POTUS- President ohhf the Uhhnited States

    YOLO- You only live ohhnce

    AWOL- Ayy-bsent without awfficial leave

    ICE- Eyemmigration and Sustoms Enforcement
