I thought I'd start a new game...
Here's how it works. I'll post a word, and the next person comes up with an acronym based on the letters of that word (You can leave out letters as long as your acronym can still be pronounced the same.). That person then gives a word to the next poster, etc.
Example:
Tigerlilly
The Group Responsible for Literature, Language, and Yelling...TGRLLY

So, first word...

Well, the lady that told me told me it stood for Fornication Under Consent of the King. I don't like the word personally, and I never use it, I just thought it was interesting that it was an acronym. *shrug*
I feel like a bad person. [Frown]
 
Posted by Da_Goat (Member # 5529) on :
 
Dude, check it.

It's okay, though. You're not a bad person. Assuming you aren't wielding a blood-splattered chainsaw right now...

Are you?

Nah, Tater, the lady's jes repeating one of them tales with absolutely no basis in fact.
Origin is the Germanic word for strike or hit.

And you really should delete it. Just click on the pencil&paper icon to the right of your name on that specific posting to get to the edit function.

And no, I don't particularly find it offensive. However, there are very practical reasons to avoid using such words on this type of forum

But but..
quote:
Did you know? . . .
In ancient England single people could not have sex unless they had consent of the king. When people wanted to have a baby, they had to get the consent of the king, and the king gave them a placard that they hung on their door while they were having sex. The placard had [insert f-word here] (Fornication Under Consent of the King) on it. Hence that's where the word [insert f-word here] came from. Now, aren't you glad you learned something new today?

I'm so confused! But I deleted it, and I don't feel like such a terrible person.
