You're thinking of PDA; Public Display of Affection.
PSA = Public Service Announcement. People use the acronym when they're sharing tips/tricks or info about a sale or safety etc - things that could be of service to the public.

The railway term is the one that I think of though, as we all know and think of railway terms when we see them in use.

The difference between "satire" and "sarcasm" is the INTENTION.
I am rarely sarcastic, and when I am, I use <sarcasm>
What some ppl don't understand is that "me strong like bull" emotionally, and that means I rarely engage in emotionalistic "sarcasm" with the intention of inflicting psychological/emotional pain/discomfort.
