Does it bother anyone else when everybody, including the "educated" media, says "HIV virus"? ?

Isn't that like saying USA America?

No why should it

No, it really doesn't. If someone didn't know what HIV meant, for instance, they just moved out of the cave and into town, that would help them. You're right, it's redundant, but there are so many other things to irritate me about the way people speak, this just doesn't rock my boat.

No...Why should it bother you? If your not HIV positive then whats the point?

It's only to educate ppl who are unaware of the effects this disease has...if it scares you so much then get tested!

Like when people say PIN number?? Or RCMP police???

Yes, it's called redundant.

"She had two blue eyes." -same effect
