Source of everything except that one thing you desperately need (in my case, flat head drive semi rounded brass left-handed 10-13 screws)

acronym - that would be great

Seriously though… The amount of acronyms on here lately is insane. Especially when you’re trying to read through important/sensitive posts, and it feels like you need a code book to decipher half the stuff written.

If you’re going to use an acronym (they have their uses), at least try and define it at the start of your post, and then use the acronym moving forward.

I actually call it (and I know this will be shocking)…McMaster-Carr. The name has become a byword on the team for getting things the next day. “But we need it tomorrow!” “Yeah, we’ll McMaster-Carr that thing.”
