Possibly. I previously reported about LBJ (Little Brown Job). The
initials JFK are candidates for slang usage. It's early in the campagin season, but
there's every reason for the slang usage of the JFK initials to catch on. If
it becomes popular enough, it should be recorded.
Slang of other initials have been recorded. For example, there are crash
meanings for the airlines TWA and SAS and MIAT. Government agencies such as
NASA, FBI, CIA, NSA have slang on their initials.
I somehow knew this would happen. I work my ass off, research my ass off,
and no one ever says anything good, and I get slammed for something "almost
wrong" like this. It's been like that all my life.
SAT is in the OED (from 1961). That definition needs to be revised now
that "SAT" officially stands for nothing. Here's a trademark.
