I now strive for colorful and expressive instead of common and crude. It works for me. Yes, I like the military radio code for acronyms, like Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, for example. Do you have a list of favorites?
Similarly, since I am annoyed by words made up by the press such as "Qaeda" and Qatar"...I have started the "Rocklobster's Redneck Guide to Islamic Spelling".

I’ve got first dibs on CHARLEY FOXTROT.

There is little that is as fine as frog's fur and much that is lower than a snake's belly. As English fears no competition it steals words from everybody making a rich pallet to play in.
Mycroft is more of Adam Selene than Sherlock Holmes. Free Luna!
