Acronym Index

grc0456 · 12-08-2006, 04:02 PM

Will you guys humor an old man and post the meaning of some of the million acronyms that are used on this site?

E.g. ASM = Alabaster Silver Metallic = paint color

**8thgenuser** · 12-08-2006, 04:30 PM

I've seen acronym indexes on other sites. Acronyms have been defined a bit haphazardly on this site, so I think this would be a great addition to our already awesome forum.

Just a thought, the acronyms could be categorized a bit like this:

Engine
K20
R18

Paint
ASM
GG
NBP
etc.

Frame
FA1
FA5
FG1
FG2

Emotions/Expressions/Water Cooler
OMG
WTF
FTBBQ
PIIHB

When/where did FTW and FTL come into popular use? From what I understand FTW is anything good, FTL is anything bad. Right?

Also, WTF does WOOT mean?
