While reading through some of the threads, I notice that a lot of acronyms are used in referring to various rides, lands, and parks.  I was hoping for a list compiling all of these that could be used as a reference for those of us that do not know what all of the acronyms stand for.

Two that immediately spring to mind are:

POTC - Pirates of the Caribbean
HISTA - Honey I Shrunk the Audience

What are some others?

SM= Space Mountain
UOE= Universe of Energy
WoL= Wonders of Life
M:S= Mission Space
CoP= Carousel of Progress
BTMRR= Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
DAK= Disney's Animal Kingdom
ToT= Tower of Terror
TT= Test Track
CTX= Countdown to Extinction (the name is now Dinosaur)
HM= Haunted Mansion
Just to name a few.

I always like:

EPCoT=Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow

HM could also mean Hidden Mickey...
So, it could be interesting when you read about HM's in the HM.

Empty Pockets Cannot Operate Turnstiles?
Employee Paychecks Come Out Thursday?
Every Person Comes Out Tired?

HM could also mean holy mackeral or hidden Martin.

So, if SM is Space Mountain, what's Splash Mountain

There's also the parks:
WDW Walt Disney World
DL Disneyland (is that also MK Magic Kingdom)
TDL Tokyo Disneyland
DLHK Disneyland Hong Kong and
DLRP Disneyland Resort Paris (also DLP Disneyland Paris or ED Eurodisney)
Not to mention all the other offshoots.
You need a whole new vocabulary to be a Disney fan

t.t.f.n.

THAT'S RIGHT, OZZIE!

[eyore]

SM2?

Nope, that won't do.
DLPR has Space Mountain 2  (SM2) after changing the ride a few years back.
Anyone any more suggestions? SplM maybe? (can't use SpM because Space starts with Sp too), sigh.

MILF- Mothers in the Laugh Floor

Mousebitters in the Laugh Floor
