Do you think the POTUS and FLOTUS mind being called that?

Asked by ETpro (34605points) July 29th, 2012

Both acronyms sound a bit creepy to me. POTUS might be a word for potable water made in the USA. FLOTUS leaves me wondering whether it is a name for a flotation device or some form of gastric distress leading to the voiding of large quantities of marsh gas. Certainly the President and First Lady know what the acronyms actually stand for. But do you think they are viewed positively by most occupants of those high positions, or might they feel some of the same visceral reaction to the sound of the acronyms that I feel? Is it just me, or are POTUS and FLOTUS a bit funky sounding?
