There is actually a funny editing story behind this one, Shani. Acronyms was my mistake. I wrote acronyms when I meant antonyms, as you very astutely picked up! But by the time the edit got figured out, I was in a more daring mood and wondered if Drew wouldn’t have actually have gotten them confused. And that would have been funnier. Not funnier in the strip, necessarily, but funnier in the real life of the conversation, which I was having in my head. : )
So yes, Shani. It was antonyms. And I think Drew knows the difference, but I think he would say acronyms just to play with Lizzie and perhaps try to distract her. So cool that you picked it up. 🙂
Wasn’t it antonyms in the last frame? lol. He may not know the difference tho.
