MAROAA, WYUANOAITTRSOPCUILAWAKWIM. I think I made my point. -
in case you're too stupid to get what I just said :rolleyes:
Make a registry of all abrevs, when you use a new one add it to the registry so other people can use it later and we all know what it means. -

Hmm, well, 1, 2, 3, uhh, 6, uhh... ooh, snap!
Try again, man this is hard.
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 = 9 X (2.5 X 2)

NO, bump is usually used when a thread has become dormant without any responses in a while. Most people just reply with "BUMP" to bump the thread back into the active/new posts queue so that others will read it again.Originally posted by rs159
FUBAR

I guess "bump" makes sense, too. -
