How do you pronounce class acronyms?

I know you didn't include crafting classes, but does anyone else giggle at CRP? I always say crap when I see that instead of carpenter.

For Crafting I actually just spell them out.

BSM becomes BeeEssEm
GSM is just GeeEssEm

ARM is just Arm.
CUL is just Cool


So when someone says I'm BSM/ARM

I pronounce that I'm BeeEssEm/ARM

MRD - Em Are Dee
GLD - Gee El Dee
PGL - Pee Gee El
ARC - Aye Are See
ACN - Aye See In
CNJ - See In Jay
LNC - El In See
THM - Tee Ayech Em

And for Jobs!

WAR - Doubleyou Aye Are
PLD - Pee El Dee
MNK - Em In Kay
BRD - Bee Are Dee
SCH - Es See Ayech
SMN - Es Em In
WHM - Doubleyou Ayech Em
DRG - Dee Are Gee
BLM - Bee El Em

ACN - Arc
ARC - Arch
CNJ - Conj
GLA - Glad
MRD - Murder
PGL - Puggle
THM - Them

BLM - Balm
BRD - Bird
DRG - Drag
MNK - Monk
PLD - Pala or Plad
SMN - Sum
SCH - Shh
WAR - War
WHM - Whim

BTN - Button
FSH - Fish?
MIN - Mine

ALC - Alk
ARM - Arm
BSM - Bdsm
CUL - Cull
CRP - Crap
GSM - Jizzum?
LTW - L'twa
WVR - Wihver

... yep.

Am I think only one who pronounces CRP Carp?

Can't wait to DEEPS with my BLAM on IFIRT. My toon is so awesome. bro.

I think of fish. And then I get hungry. D:

The only class/job names I shorten in speech are WAR/THM... "War..." and "Thaum..." But I never actually pronounce the acronyms.

I annoy PLD's with the spoony ref:

"What's a Paladin?"
