I keep getting confused by iff, because I first came across that combination of letters in IBM's OCL (the IBM minis' equivalent of JCL), where IFF means "if false". It was only several years later that I learned that everyone else it means almost the exact opposite.
I'm also perhaps the only fan who, when I hear the letters RPG, first think "Report Program Generator", and only half a second later, when that obviously doesn't fit the context, do I think "Role Playing Game" ("Rocket Propelled Grenade" is the third meaning, but that doesn't come up very often).
