after seeing somethings posted on here several times i realixed that there is a "language" on this site that alot of us dont neccessarily understand having just figured out TOM a couple weeks ago i figured i'd start this great thread please add as you see fit. also the little symbols that we post sometimes can be included.

TOM- time of the month ( i know the guys have all been confused with that one)
wtg- way to go
gj- good job

    I personally just like how the acronym TOM was created... and makes it look like we're blaming the male population for our womanly troubles. :-)

    So you are TOM. Mate, you are the most popular guy on here. The ladies are always talking about you.

    You should hear some of the things they say "My TOM drives me crazy" and "My TOM makes me feel all funny and "TOM is late. I'm getting worried..."

    Damn, if jealousy was an emotion I possessed I would be damn jealous...

    Don't forget EVOO...

    you have no idea how long I thought this was some sort of exotic sweetener or vegetable or something I had never heard of that you have to get at some specialty store.

    Then one day it just smacked me in the face:
    Extra Virgin Olive Oil!!!!!!!
