What does "ita!" mean? Someone responded this way to one of my posts,

11. And I thought engineers and IT folks were bad with acronyms. At least we keep
it to 3 or 4 characters.

Jeebus, the lounge is anywhere from 8-12 character acronyms.

:wtf:

10. I haven't looked at that in a while.
Didn't realize "don't tutch the but" had made it in. I should read the glossary more often!

31. HELPING CHILDREN THROUGH RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
<As the show opens, the Bots are doing walkathons.>

Mike: Uh, what about you, Servo?

Servo: Well, I'm walking for "Helping Children Through Research And Development".

Mike: Oh, HeCTRAD! Yeah, I think I've heard of that group. It's a good group.

Servo: No, actually "HELPING CHILDREN THROUGH RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT" is the acronym, Mike. It stands for "Hi, Everyone. Let's Pitch In 'N' Get Cracking Here In Louisiana Doing Right, Eh? Now Then. Hateful Rich Overbearing Ugly Guys Hurt Royally Everytime Someone Eats A Radish, Carrot, Hors d'oeuvre, And Never Does Dishes. Eventually, Victor Eats Lunch Over Peoria Mit Ein Neuesberger Tod".
