Edited on Tue Jan-06-09 08:55 AM by WillieW

Frequently I see these letters in a reply. What does that mean?

6. Wow, I love this list.

BITS - Bush Induced Tourette's Syndrome. A condition brought on by the sight or sound of the pResident in which one finds oneself spontaneously shouting obscenities at a television, radio, or computer screen.

ROFL!
So that's what it is, when I yell insanely at Shrub whenever I even glimpse his face on tv.

4. When someone responds to an original post it goes back to the top

in whatever forum it is in. Ergo if a responder just wants to send it back to the top for visibility the responder 'kicks' it. Recommending a post by hitting the 'recommend' button at the bottom could get it on the greatest page. So K&R is a way to get a post visibility because it is good.
