Mine is tow the line rather than toe the line.
I imagine someone as a tugboat–towing the line of what is expected. I like that imagery better than keeping a foot on some fucking line. Plus using toe as a verb is dumb.
What are yours?

POS=Point Of Sale…
That guy is a real POS! (Piece Of Shit)
That is how I heard it before a job where they kept calling the computer a POS and I thought ‘it isn’t that bad, better than the register from the prior job’ for a couple weeks before someone called it a Point of Sale.
I am convinced most retail workers refer to the system by sharing my interpretation of POS…
Yeah, I can’t imagine how the people who named it POS would do it unironically!
It’s so funny whenever I hear that acronym used professionally.
“Oh yeah? you’re pretty psyched about your new enterprise grade POS system? Sounds awesome…”
Sure, it means point of sale, but it only means that in this one context…
