Hmmm, me and the other oil field trash people on here could add some to the repertiore...<< [sic]

Believe me when you combine Southern Rednecks, Cajuns, Texans, and people from Alabama and Mississippi and college educated engineers that may or may not be from these areas, and throw in a smattering of foreigners... acronyms are about the only way to communicate...acronyms or animal names...., cat head, mouse hole, rabbit, possum belly, etc etc etc etc.... and then we can leave the galley and add Kicks, ballons, BOP, SCR, OWS, PRS, RBS, APR, EMD,Gulf Gobbler etc, etc, etc, etc, We give tripping a whole new meaning...and it has nothing to do with drugs...

The real trashy oil field people should get a kick out of the galley comment...

In case you come across them, these are also commonly used video game acronyms (I've played quite a few) Some are from chat room lingo, too.

LFG - Looking For Group
LFM - Looking For More
WTS - Want to Sell
WTB - Want to Buy
LTB - Looking to Buy
WTT - Want to Trade
PST - Please Send Tell
PSW - Please Send Whisper
AFK - Away from keyboard
/pwn - Owned

Yes, I am a geek. But I still love cars and Camaros
