Wierd Words, Acronyms, etc. for Noobs

I'm a fairly new poster here, been a lurker for a while though. I get confused by some of these things, maybe you guys can shed some light on the subject:

Nef/Neffing = am I neffing right now? I don't want to be a Nef
Troll = anyone who you don't like or rips you off in a buy/sell?
Thread Crapping = just like it sounds
YAGT = ???
YMMV = your mileage may vary (finally figured this one out)
B&M (store) = ???
Sux0r = sux?


Any other commonly used terms noobs should be aware of, or maybe this is some exclusive club where newbies aren't allowed and a secret code is used to keep us out....hmmmm 🙂🙂

Nef/Neffing = am I neffing right now? I don't want to be a Nef posting a worthless post, just to raise your post count
Troll = anyone who you don't like or rips you off in a buy/sell?
Thread Crapping = just like it sounds
YAGT = ??? yet another girl thread
YMMV = your mileage may vary (finally figured this one out)
B&M (store) = Brick & Mortar
Sux0r = sux? yep

Damn you "I before E except after C or when sounding like A as in neighbor and weigh (don't forget Budweiser)" rule.....you failed me again.

To the rest of you thanks for the input so far, YAGT and B&M cracked me up.

D'oh, I forgot about W00t....

You don't pronounce it Bud-WAY-sur, do you? It's a stupid rule, and a wierd rule at that.
 
Some Hot Deals acronyms:

MIR = Mail in Rebate
YMMV = Your mileage may vary
PM = price match (sometimes private message)
AR = after rebate
 
**OFFICIAL** **CONFIRMED**

use that whenever......there was an attempt to regulate those terms, but i don't think it got the required amount of signatures on the petition
