A peek into my brain: if ever explicitly asked how to pronounce a word/phrase whose pronunciation is at all in question, I will invariably provide a ridiculous answer that is not at all reflective of real-life pronunciation.

― MarkoP, Wednesday, 23 September 2020 03:45 (three years ago) link

I sometimes have to say ilm out loud to explain to my ILE lurker wife where the posts are that she doesn’t see. And it’s an initialism, not an acronym.
