The Ferrovie Autolinee Regionali Ticinesi exists, and, uses the obvious acronym
And I'm still fucking 13.
I love the smell of rotaries in the morning. You know one time, I got to work early, before the rush hour. I walked through the empty carpark, I didn't see one bloody Prius or Golf. And that smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole carpark, smelled like.... ....speed.

This is just as important!
Ottawa just got some new commuter trains. The model name is "Fast Light Innovative Regional Train", and they're being deployed on the line that services Carleton University.

Seattle had the South Lake Union Trolley (yes, t-shirts with "Ride the SLUT" were printed).
Yes, it WAS quickly rebranded the "South Lake Union Railcar".
"It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it." - Aristotle
"Being told to be 'open minded' about something is usually a code for 'you're not going to like this, but I want to subject you to it anyway'. Conversely, being told that you are 'closed-minded' is generally a means of asserting that 'I don't like the fact that you're proving me wrong, so I will pretend that your failure to agree with my argument is a philosophical deficiency'." - RationalWiki
