Hackers used it in the 70s, originally military lingo long ago.

I thought everyone knew πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

I'm ex military. I'm very familiar with the terms FUBAR and SNAFU 😊

reply

FUBAR I learned from internet webchat and gaming. Fucked Up Beyond All Repair. SNAFU I heard but I can't remember the meaning off the top of my head. My take on it is So Nasty All Fucked Up?

reply

SNAFU - Situation normal: all fucked up

reply

Its abit of a dumb title imo , the mass audience isn't going to be all that familiar with the term (ok it'll take 0.75 of a second to find out but most ppl wont care enough to look)

Better to have called it Absolute Lies or True Fibs lol so at least audiences know its a sort of vague semi sequel to True Lies (TLIEBN)

The idiot "lol" is by far the most annoying though.
