Title is question.
Some people write it AoA.
But I think it should be AoO.  :)

AoA is a typo, plain and simple. It's not ambiguous. Artifact of Odin has the acronym AoO.

But if you want you can search knucklecracker forum and see how many AoA typos here is  :o

People also confuse they're/their/there, misspell every other word known to man, and commit all sorts of grammatical sins.
Doesn't matter how many times they do it that way, they're still wrong.

I see "AoA" and think "Angle of Attack" -- but that's an airplane thing. :)

My pet peeve is that almost every time I type the word "lathe" I add an "r" and write "lather". Annoying as heck, given how often I type that word.

The reasoning is that if enough people agree on something, it becomes real and accepted.

The expression 'a lot' - now well on it's way to becoming a single accepted word - 'alot' - because so many people now spell it that way...

Grrr.

That's my #2 pet peeve.

Now, if only we could get enough people to agree that the moon is made of green cheese...

No, I'm with Grayzzur - they're still wrong!

And bad luck Karsten - you've got a long road ahead of you to undo that tick! You'll probably kick it, then never need to type 'Lathe' ever again.

Unless you you find yourself referring to machinery on a regular basis...

Wow...just wow!

Actually, as odd as that was I couldn't stop watching and listening to it.  I'm seriously contemplating bookmarking that to show to basically anybody who makes a post online.

Edit:  I left out a word and figured that would be a bad idea on this particular post! :)
Omnipotence doesn't mean the ability to do what is logically impossible. It's possible, therefore, for God to create beings with the kind of free will that can choose between good and evil, but he can't also force those creatures to choose good. If he forced their choice, it wouldn't be free.
