I'd greatly appreciate help with the acronyms on this board.
For example, what does LOL mean? Where I buy Channel #5 it means "little old lady" as in Channel is a lol fragrance. But I know it has another meaning here.
Help!

LOL @ Simon! Must be a funny donkey!
I thought it might also be useful to have a Handy glossary for newbies:
JW = Jehovahs Witness
DFd = Disfellowshipped
DAd = Disassociated
Dub = Jehovahs Witness. (Stems from the W in JW.)
Borg = JW Organisation. Stems from cyborg race in Star Trek, which tries to assimilate everyone and bans individuality. All members are part of a collective as drones.
Drone = JW (see Borg)
WBTS = Watchtower Bible and Tract Society.
GB = Governing Body (JW leaders)
Any others that we tend to use without thinking?
