    It's peculiar that we, in English, abbreviate "world wide web" as "www" when "www" is nine syllables long and "world wide web" is only three.

    That's why some people call it "Dub Dub Dub"...

    I vote for dropping the "World Wide" part and just going with the "Web".

    When in school, Fry dealt with bullies by telling them with sincerity and deep concern, "please, please, don't touch me. You'll give me an erection!"
