Is Reddit charging you by the letter, OP?

That was the headline that reddit threw out at me. Had too many posts taken down for changing them that I just stuck with it. I should have posted an explanation in the comments though.

To be fair, that's what most people call them.

Hardly anyone says "British Airways". They're just called BA, like you'd say the US, instead of United States.

I'm not from the UK, but I understand if the abbreviation doesn't make initial sense to someone outside Europe.

I am in Europe and it made no sense to me. BA could stand for anything. Like for example capital city of my country.
