What about OMGWTFGTLAs? As in OMGWTF Goddamn Three Letter Acronyms!

I remember when I was bit. It's been a few years but the experience is fresh in my mind like newly harvested hay. I remember being stunned that my rosie bit me and I looked down at her. She was still hanging on with her fangs when suddenly the pain hit me and all I could think was <EDIT>...

Excellent! Thanks! I'll go see if I can dig up any old threads on the subject and then I'll link to them here just in case anyone else is wondering about the same thing. And I'm not sure where my mind got "imperatus" from. I did mean "imperator". Strange.
