Regular users of
MetaFilter seem to speak in a mysterious code composed of acronyms. These acronyms are often included in the deletion reasons of
DeletedThreads. Now you can use this handy page to decode them.
- GYOFB- Get Your Own Fucking Blog
- IANAL- I am not a lawyer. Often used in AskMe as a disclaimer for legal advice given by a person who IS NOT A LAWYER. The last letter can also be modified to D for doctor or any other letter for any other profession.
- LOLXIANS- Ha ha look at what the stupid Christians are doing now! Often modified to LOLathiests, LOLbrnppl, ad infinitum.
- SLBOE- Single Link Blog Op Ed. Many people have wondered how a blog can have an opposite page editorial but whatever, it sounds cool.
