Ever since I've started playing FFXI I've learned quite a few acronyms and terms. The gaming community itself, seems to have a dialect all its own, and FFXI has a load full of acronyms, that if you don't know what they mean, you'll be left scratching your head for awhile.
For the longest time, this one acronym has puzzled me, and even made me cringe everytime I saw it: OMGWTFBBQ
To me, it just seems so...I don't know...adolescent.
For those who don't know, this acronym is usually used as OMG WTF barbeque! Personally, I think it should be translated as OMG WTF Be Back Quick, as in: "Emergency! omgwtfbbq!" But...nope.
This acronym is used when someone does something really stupid, or you have no idea what you are talking about, or to mock others. I don't see it in-game very much, but I see it on the forums, and, well, I just don't like it. It just seems like such a butcher of the English language. If you are going to ridicule or mock someone, it can be done much more effectively than just typing OMGWTFBBQ!!
I guess some people just aren't very creative....
OMGWTFBBQ!!

Obviously, whoever is spamming this ad, must think...
a) people are stupid and don't have their own education/careers
b) people are gullible enough to think any degree that can be BOUGHT is actually recognized
and/or
c) no one has a future without calling that number....
.... thanks for wasting 1 minute of my time reading that stupid ad. On the other hand, writing this response gave me something to do....
