    I haven't found anything on ET like this, but it would be great to have. Then a newbie like me might have a prayer of understanding posts like Sprout's:

    "True. It does provide an overall context. Lot's of folks use the methodology of filtering by sector, leaders in that sector, the weeklies, the dailies, screening for HH's, LL's, bounces off trendlines, VE's, BO's, FBO's, FTT's so on and so forth. "

    Maybe we could start a post people could add to, like put a desired definition there with a question mark at the bottom, and when somebody defines it it gets moved to it's alphabetical position in the glossary above. Well I don't know if that would work...

  7. For what it's worth, urban dictionary helpfully offers the following definitions:

    HH: A term girls use to describe the hoe's that follow around and used by Fuck Boys
    LL: A lesbian lover
    VE: An alternative word used on Ragnarok Online for "Fuck" or "Fucking"
    BO: Body odor. Sometimes confused with crack, and crystal meth
    FBO: From Behind Only
    FTT: Full toilet training, its a S&M thing
