BFI
/BFI/ , n. See brute force and ignorance. Also encountered in the variants
BFMI, brute force and massive ignorance and BFBI brute force and bloody
ignorance. In some parts of the U.S. this abbreviation was probably
reinforced by a company called Browning-Ferris Industries in the
waste-management business; a large BFI logo in white-on-blue could be seen
on the sides of garbage trucks.
