fubar

Ah, I see - so just because you are intimately acquainted with foo doesn't mean you like foobar. Your use of the word foo reminds me of grok.

arb, I agree with you. I use foo all the time because... I have no idea why, actually. It just sort of insinuated itself into my brain. I use 'em for different things, though. For me foo is all purpose and neutral. Fubar is for when things are, well, fucked.

John I know you like foobar better, but I prefer this spelling because of the acronym.
