A Comprehensive Rambling On Names Involving Multiple Usable Semantics!
Acronyms have always amazed me. They just have so many possibilities! Just as there are some which can have multiple different expansions (often leading to humorous situations), there are others which when compressed can lead to a completely different word (try shortening Automated Security System).
So I decided to make a new forum game all about acronyms. There are several things you can do here:
1. Tell an acronym, and let others expand it. (Multiple persons can come up with multiple expansions.)
2. Tell word sequences which have interesting shortened forms.
3. Tell an interesting acronym as well as expand it yourself. You can give multiple expansions as well, and maybe mention anecdotes where they had confused you.
4. Anything else that is creative about acronyms.
However, please keep in mind the forum rules, and so please keep things PG-13. I hope that is understandable.
Have fun!

I'll just leave this in here and let ya'll guess on what it means.

Let's go with slightly shorter acronyms, because coming up with guesses gets kinda hard at some point, and eventually you're just throwing random words together.

Actually I made WIPOBTL from the famous saying of the Priest of Oghma: "Wisdom is possessed only by the learned."

Hint:
For TPW, I was thinking of the extended version, Turtle-Punching Walruses Teach People Why Turtles Probably Want to Punch Walruses.
