Are we REALLY calling it STiD?

Are we really calling Star Trek Into Darkness STiD as an abbreviation??

It looks too much like STD for me to be comfortable with it...

You're welcome to call it whatever you want. As long as you go see it.

I'm calling it "the movie" or "the next movie" as often as not, but STID does have the advantage of being an accurate initialism of the movie's title.

Believe it or not, that similarity has been pointed out a time or two (or forty-two) already.

Would you describe the discomfort as an itch... or more of a burning sensation?

I call it Geoff.

I like Geoff.

No one's calling it "STiD."

People are abbreviating it "STiD" on message boards.

When I actually call it something out loud, it's either "Into Darkness" or "the next Star Trek movie."

Just call it Khan Returns.

SalvorHardin · January 10 2013, 12:55 PM

I call it Johny when we're alone.

Ive just been calling it "Into Darkness" or the next Star Trek...many people are simply calling it Star Trek 2.

teacake · January 10 2013, 01:07 PM

At least it isn't "Attack Into Darkness".

Ssstid. It's a word not an anacronym.

BillJ · January 10 2013, 02:05 PM

I don't care what people call, it as long as its good.

Tosk · January 10 2013, 02:39 PM

It's Trek 12 to me. I don't care, it's just easier.

I'm calling it DARKNESS. In all caps. That's what I call it. DARKNESS is the sequel to TREK. It works. It works for everything.
