New word Thursday


I'm not actually trying to start a regular meme...but I have a new word for all of you to use at your disposal.

Or rather, an acronym.

See, something at work happened the other day that was a real SNAFU, as they say in the military (and elsewhere): Situation Normal All Fucked Up.

Except for the fact that it was my fault, so it became (and I believe I am the first to lay claim to this) a SNIFU: Situation Normal I Fucked Up.

Feel free to use it when necessary. Circumstances that precede the occurrence of a SNIFU include, but are not limited to, the following:

1. Lack of sleep
2. Lack of coffee
3. Lack of both sleep and coffee

Happy almost Friday!

Shoot, I go through this every day at work, especially when my supervisor says, "G, come with me."

I should mail you some of the stuff I drink. Café Pilon = no fuck ups!

Happy Friday, Chica! :)

You've always had such a way with words! If I start using your new one, I'd end up using it every other sentence. ;)

G: I had a boss that used to e-mail everyone constantly, "Come see me." It freaked us out because he could be about to bite someone's head off or just about to ask if we had plans for lunch.

S: Now I want to know about Cafe Pilon!

PT: I bet they are interesting ;)

Joey: We're competing on that one.

Mike D and SMBBTC: I'll have to put those on a shirt with SNIFU and see if anyone can figure it out. BOHICA I haven't heard before. Cheers!
