I think the mods stopped taking kindly to that one :)

I'm going to go out on a limb and say ATOT probably coined 'YACT', 'YAGT', and 'DHITB'.

Anyone know if we can lay claim to 'NSFW'?

NSFW was around for awhile me thinks, though we use it appropriatley most of the time here.

You guys have oogabooga and had agabooga... that alone is worth mentioning. (imho...)

ok heres how it started.

from the beginning i have always signed my posts with a MIKE. finally i posted a thread called "Steam is getting raped" and in the topic summary i decided to post MIKE because i had nothing else to do. Minendo called me on it by just typing in MIKE. that thread has since become a massive post regarding MIKE and its beginnings. which i dont understand because i did it. Clint, i have no idea what started that.

I've seen the thread. It never made sense. I figured they were just making fun of you better never knew why. Thanks for the slight explanation.

Ive never really understood it either, i think its just because mine is in all caps, others have sigs like that though too. just not in all caps.

ahahah roflmao, ya i found that pretty amusing. I remember that thread. It's just a wierd occurance. Since you decided to sign your posts that way (and topic summary), people just decided to do that in that thread for some no good odd reason.

as for clint, there was this one dude who kept on saying "dear clint, my life sucks..." etc.
and that was that.


OK. THAT'S IT.

As far as I know my friend Goehner started, "lol?" He's not from ATOT, but I know him IRL so clearly I am special. ;)
