Linguistics experts around the world today have noticed a disturbing trend. Blue Damage caught up with an expert Dennis Noblewood for more information on the problem. “It’s quite shocking. There are so many meanings to the acronym AP. It’s just beginning to get ridiculous.” AP can stand for many things, including, but not limited to: admiralty pattern, all politics, acellular pertussis, accuracy problem, advanced placement, access point, artist proof, and attitude and persistence, just to name a few. When searching for more words, our team of investigators became overwhelmed, melting under the pressure of truthful journalism. A few people are even beginning to use it for words that don’t even have 2 letters to begin with such as armed forces pacific or anteroposterior.

“I don’t know how we didn’t catch this sooner,” said Dennis. “I mean, this is really out of control.” When asked what could be done about this terrible mishap, Dennis responded, “Just don’t use the term around people that aren’t in your industry. That’s the only thing we can do.” We pointed out that in the IT sector alone, AP stands for access point, access provider, access proxy, ActivePerl, adjunct processor… Dennis became enraged and asked us to leave immediately. Jennifer Rogers, another linguistics expert, couldn’t even speak she was so shocked at the recent statistics. Blue Damage recommends to just relax, ignore the problem and have some AP (apple pie).
