I keep seeing you people talk about MATY but I don't know what that means. I was going to post this in retarded land because I am probably the only person who does not know what it means.  but after looking over there in retard land I didn't think that was the right place to ask a question, everyone was calling each other stupid and such. Or maybe they were just clowning around  |

LOL @ twain and Kewian...
It's okay, you are not the first one to wonder about MATY... I've seen the question on other boards (which is how I found this place).

Heheh, I was one of the first ones to use the phrase over on VS in regards to JM's director's cut, the MATY package, because I didn't feel like typing moreawesomethanyou.zip all the time. I am just tickled at how it's caught on, but of course everyone makes acronyms out of everything online anyway.

I use IIRC = If I Recall Correctly a lot... that one throws people sometimes.
MYL = Made You Laugh, is my favorite, cuz I have no sense of humor (so I've been told) so don't make people laugh too often :)

Me, my most frequently used acronyms tend to be along the lines of FUBAR and AWOL.

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I cannot accept, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those I had to kill because they pissed me off.

AFAIK....
that one got me a few times, I thought it was a fancy way of saying Away From Keyboard.
Anyone know what it means? Pop quiz.

I love FUBAR. So do I. I used it once here though, and someone didn't know what it meant, so I had the pleasure of explaining it to her. |

AFAIK, BFBVFS is pretty MATY limited.
The fancy way of saying AFK is BRB which we always translated BathRoom Break and around here should be something like PB or PIMPB or POMK or something...
So, military connections JM?
