Message 1681785 - Posted: 20 May 2015, 15:46:27 UTC - in response to Message 1681776.  

I may have too much time in my hands today, but it somehow occurred, while checking some twitterings—there is a background to this, but long story... However:

There is this newly presented @POTUS. There is the @FLOTUS, too.

Taking into account a future possibility, what would be the necessary abbreviation, and on which grounds: @FGOTUS, @FHOTUS...?

I don't care about anti-human political statements. That's exactly why I take this into Cafe SETI. So please keep this civilised. We are discussing about different social variations and linguistics thereupon, aren't we?

I have read that when we have our first "Female POTUS, the appropriate title for her husband would be First Gentleman (as in "Ladies and Gentlemen"), so FGOTUS woould be the accronym. I'm not even going to attempt to pronounce it.....

CRL = Crazy Raccoon Lady = me

If you are ever on a plane and you happen to notice that somebody calling herself CRL is handing you your posterior in the In-Flight Trivia Game, please make sure to introduce yourself when we are all at the Baggage Claim.
