Oh that is just such a PR classic... It's the ONLY game I know of where DYING is actually no dying at ALL... Sure there are games where you can be revived but in PR it really counts...

Gary is Gary's actual name. We voted on it awhile back. That makes it official. This applies to real world garbage trucks as well. They're all now called Gary.

Everyone does. Once lingo becomes synonymous over time there is practically no way to replace it or get rid of it.

In Australia, nobody calls it a 'hideout', its always dogbox.

And M133's are often referred to as Gavins.

Oh yeah, metal coffin.

Malapropism
"the unintentional misuse of a word by confusion with one that sounds similar."

Its not really a malapropism/wrong if its just shorthand. When writing down an order for an operation/mission you gotta write quickly... so enemy becomes nme, "In order to" becomes IOT, "In vicinity of" becomes IVO and **** like that. Typing in games the same thing

A lot of these are still pretty funny. Dragon Rifle I thought was hilarious

I hate when people say "pacific" instead of "specific"
as in "We need to clear this pacific section of the city"...
