[rescuejew]

So we all have acronyms that we use a lot that are funny, I've seen things like FDGB but how bout some others??

I'll go first:

LOL squared: (not laughs out loud amazingly) this one means: Little Old Lady, Lying On Linoleum

Not vulgar in the least but one of my favorites!!

On my 3rd clinical at a hospital ER... I was helping in triage.

This little lady came in ... her face covered in hematomas. Turned out she fell several days prior but the "red" kept growing on her face...as she put it.

The triage nurse looks at her point blank and says "Did you Fall Down Go Boom??"

It took everything for me to not laugh out loud....

ambulanche

Ambulance avalanche. An onslaught of emergency vehicles in full siren mode that appear out of nowhere, usually resulting in your missing a turn or taking the wrong exit on the freeway.

Example: Sorry I'm late, but I was caught in an ambulanche and ended up on the Jersey Turnpike.
