Every chemist's brain lighting up like a Christmas tree when they add another hyphenated acronym to their analytical technique. Starting with basic LC-MS (liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) is just the gateway drug. Then you're chasing that high with HPLC-TOF-MS, until you're full-on mainlining RP-HPLC-ESI-Q-TOF-MS at conferences just to feel something. Nothing says "my research is superior" like an acronym longer than most people's passwords. The more letters, the more funding—it's just science!
