☝🤓 Erm akchually it's not "AD", but "ad".
It's a normal word, not an acronym. It's a shortening of "advertisement", or a further shortening of "advert" which is a shortening of "advertisement". It surprises me that people do not realize this; it seems obvious.

Thank you [Honorary] Pedantry :D. "ad" just felt wrong somehow, but you are correct. I have fixed it, sorry for the pain and suffering I caused you :D
