what does "foobar" even mean?

- Gooch - 12-20-2004

FUBAR is an acronym that originated in the military to stand for the words "fucked up beyond all repair."

- Gooch - 12-20-2004

No shit.

Though, I didn't ask what FUBAR is. I asked what "foobar" is.

actually, if you followed the meaning of foobar as opposed to fubar, i was making the opposite point using the same joke
