	The first two I'm sure you're familiar with, but perhaps not the third:

		OMG = Oh My G*d
		ROTFLMAO = Rolling On The Floor, Laughing My A$$ Off
		TIPMTU = 'Till I Puke My Toenails Up

	I've said this on more than a few public mailing lists, so I'm 
really surprised that Google didn't find it.  I mean, it's trivially 
easy to find a FAQ I wrote back in 1991 regarding stiction (or 
sticktion, I don't remember how I spelled it) in hard drives.  It's 
been many, many years since I wrote that, and I certainly don't 
recall knowing that I'd be posting it to a mailing list that would be 
publicly archived forever.


	Besides, I wasn't commenting on his context.  I was commenting on 
what it was that I'd actually seen him say/type.  I don't recall 
anyone on any public mailing list I've ever been on saying that same 
word (I've seen "wonky" before, but not "wonkies"), although I might 
have heard people say something comparable when they've had quite a 
bit too much to drink and are being very much sillier than they 
normally are -- and I hang out with some people who can be 
extraordinarily silly even when they're sober.

	I just thought it was extremely funny to see/hear Warner say 
that, and felt that I had to comment on it -- albeit to chat@, which 
no one ever reads or pays any attention to.

	On rare occasion, yes.  Usually in ground form, as a replacement 
for ground beef, or to augment ground beef.

	Now, where did you get the idea for Tofu?
