Raok? Op? What does it mean?

[HCardenas]

I don't know what these terms mean, but I see them on here all the time. Is there a listing of the different terminology that I can look up?

Thanks! :itsme:

The search feature and I are really good friends. If I wasn't currently married I would probably be married to the search feature here. But any who, search feature doesn't hate you.

Thank you so much! That has been bugging me for so long and I haven't been able to find it through the "search" feature. :dancing:

Some of these I knew, most I didn't. I doubt I'll be using the foul language ones, but thanks for the heads up so I know which are which. ;)

Um, hee hee what's FSOT? So many terms... You know I've been using the internet since the 90's, and we had a lot of terms back then, all memorized. But there have been so many new ones created over the years that I have seemingly lost track of all the new information and feel like a newbie to this stuff. It makes me feel stupid to ask. :stupido2: :rofl:
