Seeing in high definition the folly of imprisoning wild killer whales

I COMMITTED to a smart HD TV before Christmas because Himself was complaining that he couldn’t see the golf balls when he was watching tournaments. He could see the lads swinging all right, but the swing was followed by soaring camera views of clouds with no ball visible. I was amazed. I thought that was normal. I thought the soaring camera views were designed to remind you of scudding clouds and of how irritating it is that the verb “to scud” applies only to clouds.

HD TV would solve all of those problems, we were told. Which was another irritant. Could someone please write an end to the onward march of the acronym (or initialism) before public discourse reduces itself to one cluster of letters and numerals after another?
