What is FUBAR btw?

Oh, heh, I typed FU and then remembered something in gym class today. I have a very stern and uptight gym teacher who seems to have a rod up his ass at all times. So he's doing attendance and says, "Jim Fu...Jim? Jim Fu? F-U." Now, how many Jim Fu's are there in the world? Let alone in suburbia in a 1400 kid high school!? I think he was saying to this Jim character, "fvck you!" Only veeeeeeery discreetly... Either that or he is a moron...yep, thats the one.
