Would you say a FWD car or an FWD car? I personally go with how it would be for a person saying the meaning of the acronym but I'm sure someone somewhere sounds out just the letters in their head.
"is it safe to breathe today?" and other questions we have to ask in current year.
Did I just see a Modern Warfare III commercial with a clip from grandson Blood // Water in it? What’s next? Northrop Grumman marketing execs don’t listen to the full song and they put Sleep Now in the Fire in lobbying ad buys? BP with some Beds Are Burning for a thanksgiving commercial?

I think of the headlines below whenever someone insists the worst most horrible thing that happened "during covid" was that children were harmed by schools being closed. We had YEARS of coast-to-coast waves of running out of room for dead bodies * "during covid" is now, we're still during covid
