I'm pleased somebody brought this subject up as I'm really tired of seeing Americanisms creeping into our society and diluting it to such a degree as to subjugate our own culture.
There are many examples of this. Not just acronyms but expressions and words.
One that erks me a lot is the use of 'ass' when the correct term in Australia at least is 'arse'.
Yes, I am old, I'm Australian and I'm proud of it.
BTW I don't wear NY caps.
