Bandom Acronym/Terminology Reference

[kaizoku]

I'm really bad at remembering acronyms and stuff, so this is mostly for my own reference. May be updated as I come across things.

...waitwaitwhat! I had not noticed that damnyouwentz had closed! I had started watching it just in late February, I think. I'd been wondering why I hadn't seen anything from it lately. Oh, that makes me sad.

[kaizoku]

)-: It is sad! I think the second time I checked it, it had closed. And then I kept forgetting *what* it was that had closed so I added it. I think maybe there's a similar community that picked up after it closed? I'm not sure though.

I always thought GSF stood for Group Sex Fic. Oh well, works either way. :D

[kaizoku]

Possibly? I was going by Urban Dictionary.

[stepps]

I agree with Group Sex Fic more that "slut" fic, or possibly Group Slash Fic. But then, I've only seen the acronym used, and never the full term, so I just guessed it on my own.

This is an idea I've had kicking around for a bit, a bandom specific term glossary. I'm gonna del.it. I hope you do update it, because there are loads of bandom slang people don't know :)

Oh, here via dotcoms, obv.

Hi *waves*. Thanks, I edited that in. I do update it when I remember to.

I've seen a rich man beg I've seen a good man sin I've seen a tough man cry I've seen a loser win And a sad man grin I heard an honest man lie I've seen the good side of bad And the downside of up And everything between I licked the silver spoon Drank from the golden cup And smoked the finest green I stroked the baddest dimes at least a couple of times before I broke their heart You know where it ends, yo, it usually depends on where you start I knew this kid named Max who used to get fat stacks out on the corner with drugs He liked to hang out late He liked to get faced and keep the pace with thugs Until late one night there was a big gun fight and Max lost his head He pulled out his chrome.

This was really thorough. Thanks!

I really could have used your internet slang guide a few months ago. I would just stare at my computer screen, not understanding what anyone was talking about.

Now I'm all, "IKR, bb!!!" SO sad.

[kaizoku]

LOL, me too! I added "IKR"! :-)

[wordsalone]

Awesome! :D
