FUBAR = F'd UP Byond All Recognition

SWAG = Scientific Wild A$$ Guess

Since I got FUBAR at the Club last night, and then got called in to fix something that was just SUS...I took a SWAG prior to realizing it was just another SNAFU. Boy, these user's are a PITA and have too much FUN. I wish they'd just RTFM.

I could keep going like that all day, but I think I'll give it a rest...
