For me, it's either air conditioning, alternating current, or, especially if I'm on Giant Bomb, Assassin's Creed.

All of the above...? Well, depends on what context I'm given. Like when I read the thread title, this being a video game focused site, I immediately thought of Armored Core and Assassin's Creed, then air conditioner as a more general thing.

... Why did I just go through the trouble of explaining instead of just leaving it at "all of the above?" I need a drink.

#11 Posted by Captain_Felafel (1310 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

My mind immediately thinks "Alternating Current" and then slowly sides into "Assassin's Creed".

#12 Posted by TheHT (8419 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

Depends on the context, whereby it's usually either Assassin's Creed or air conditioner.

Air Conditioner...

The 1st and 3rd letters of the alphabet.

Alternate Current

#17 Posted by Butano (1442 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

Well, for day-to-day life, air conditioning. For games, Asheron's Call, followed by Assassin's Creed.

#18 Posted by Little_Socrates (5471 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

Air conditioning, then Assassin's Creed, then Armored Core.

#19 Posted by JazGalaxy (1224 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

Asherons Call. Then I had to go to Wikipedia to figure out what game that is and why it popped into my head...

On this site (and anywhere else nerds proliferate) it means Armor Class to me. Out in the real world it means Air Conditioning.

Cool, somebody got a bug up their ass from my legitimate answer to this question, and a failure of a mod deleted my post without ever even sending me a PM.

Well anyway, it makes me think of this band called Anal Cunt. I won't post the innocuous logo, because somebody's apparently a baby.

You DID post a picture of a vagina.

Both A and D.

#27 Posted by A_Deep_Mushroom (68 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

I cannot believe that "Armor Class" wasn't on that poll. Sure it falls into "Other", but "Armor Class" is kind of a big deal. Guess that's an opinion though...

I posted a logo that has a drawing of one for the C in 'Cunt'. It's not like it was a photograph or something. Either way complete censorship without even notification wasn't the way to handle it.

Air conditioner, because it's on right now, even though its like 40 degrees outside.

Alternating current and stuff.

#41 Posted by nintendoeats (5970 posts) - 1 year, 6 months ago

Here is why you should always think about alternating current. You see, Thomas Edison invented Direct Current, whereas Nikola Tesla invented Alternating Current. Each has it's uses, but Edison of course wanted everybody using DC. In order to demonstrate the dangers of alternating current, he did this (please note that this video is not for the faint of heart. I'm really not kidding):

And now you will always remember!!!

I was thinking anal cunt, too. they use the initials AC a lot because they can't use the full name at a lot of places - some people find it offensive for some reasons.

These electric of-fence-ive puns are third de-rail-ing this thread.

Am I doing it right?

Wow, and I thought it would be weird that "Alternating Current" was the first thing to pop into my head... now I feel so mainstream.
