RV?

Last year, multiple Grammy award winner Robin Williams starred alongside teen pop/r&b singer JoJo in RV, a movie about an overworked dad, his wife and 2 teenage kids going on a road trip in a RV (recreational vehicle) to Colorado.

This morning when I woke up, somehow the word RV was stuck in my head like a tune or jingle from a commercial you can't seem to get out of your head. Subconsciously I was forced to ponder upon alternatives the word 'RV' could possibly mean, so my hyperactive brain came up with a few alternatives (which might or might not go well with some of the readers).

RV, even in the movie it doubles as Runaway Vacation and Recreational Vehicle. Could it also be Runaway Vehicle or Ruined Vehicle? The RV did roll into the lake. (sorry for spoiling it for you guys who haven't watched the movie yet). Not enough with merely that, my brain kept on processing... RV...RV...RV...

Rape virgins? Omigosh... now where is this going? It's 9:22am on a monday morning and the best first output my brain could process is this. I wonder... whatever happened to IOIOIOIOIO? how about politically correct terms? Like Rape victims maybe? or right down to the mundane Regular Visits... to the doc?

What I'm going to do to get the word RV out of my head is, list out a whole string of possible words or meanings this acronym could possible generate. And oh yeah, I enlisted the help of google 2 mins ago. I typed in 'acronym' and it displayed a couple of sites with 'acronym' in their website name and one of them was acronymfinder.com

This website is pretty cool! It has none of the fancy graphics or scripts, just plain old html. So, I typed 'RV' into the search box and it gave me 3 pages of possible meaning to it. Let's see...

Review, Rendezvous, Right Ventrical, Random Variable, Revised version, Retrovirus, Relief Valve, Residual volume (lung), Reverberation, Rabies virus??!!, Reactor vessel, revalidation, reconnaissance vehicle, research vessel, remote valley, ring volume, rented vehicle, reference voltage, rated voltage, release valve, radar view, receipt voucher, routine verification, radius of vulnerability, recombination velocity, resident visit...

wa wa wee wa! me borat!! hehe... thats so many combinations! I reckon it would be enough for me to finally lay it to rest and get it out of my head! cool! next time you get an acronym stuck in your head in the morning, give the site a try!

Cheers!
