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.
