Alright, I can't stand it anymore. I've been on
various e-mail lists for over a year now, and I still
haven't figured it out...
I know what the gist of ObUA means (or ObDG (Delta
Green), or ObDnD, or ObCoC (Call of Cthulu)), that
this is how I'm relating my OT stuff to being on-topic
for UA but...
What the hell does Ob stand-for?
'On-topic by way of ...'?
'Optometrists buy a lot of ...'?
'Onamatopeoia borkie-dorks ....'?
'[Feminine Hygiene product] ...'?
I'm telling you, I've been racking my brains on this
one. The nice thing about the Internet is the amount
of acronyms that get bandied about. It's a nice way to
keep newbies out, and by the looks of ObUA I'm
obviously out. And I still find tons of acronyms that
I no matter how I twist around, can't figure out (like
YMMV, IMHO, or WItFFWtFBBD*?). I feel like a total
moron.
Clueless,
Steve Dustin
*Ok, maybe I made that last one up: it's What In the
Flying Fuck Would the Fabulous Burrito Brothers Do?
Words to live by friend, words to live by.
