No. You are not pulling that self-serving manipulative bull**** on this one. There's a difference between words coming into or out of usage or meanings changing naturally and people simply being wrong for so long that they outlive the naysayers. They're still wrong. They're just too stupid or ignorant to know it. There's a reason why acronym is a word in the first place and that reason is to describe a word that has been created by phonetically pronouncing an abbreviation.

None of this applies to pb&j anyways, the letters read the same as pronouncing the acronym outright.
Pronounced like an acronym it would be something like "pibdge". Learn to not be a ****ing moron.
