There's no secret to that code. It just means "terrible" in binary.

Harry, I don't go on the forum in question to make jokes and use Internet memes. It's a (more) serious forum.

So what's MBA?

Master of Business Administration you n00b.
I don't live in the US and even I know what it is.

I'm not a business-orientated person. I am also not American. NBA = n00b of Business Administration And there was me thinking it meant: Master of Barak's Administration or Multi-level Barak Assessment or Masturbatory Barak Appealer

Long laugh I guess, and some people really need those letters to actually GET the message.

Or maybe it's some secret code...

MBA = Better pay, better conditions, more promotions, etc etc It used to be that if you wanted top jobs you had to go to college. Now it seems you have to get some type of graduate school in order to even have a chance to compete. And people wonder why so many college kids get out of school with large amounts of debt.

There's another forum I go on and it's much more "serious" that this one. I mean, people tend to stay on topic and not rant about random crap... but most of the female posters (most seem to be in the 30 to 50 age range) all seem to user "lol" at the end of any sentence that is not so on topic.
It drives me potty!

Much more serious than this one?

Yep, it's mostly middle-aged/retired women or retired men. There's The Common Room but even that stays on topic.

Oh and Mohammed Odeh had his head on upside down too.
Also, there was this deaf guy in our class and he always sat at the front of the lecture theatre with a signer... anyhow, one day he brought in a video camera so he could film the lecture (for lip reading and note taking purposes) but due to Mohammed's religion, he wouldn't let him record and got really defensive about it. The deaf guy (who also happened to be Asian) wasn't best pleased...
Nor were many of the rest of the class.

With profs like those, you can only hope the evaluations are worth something...
The worst are those idiotic idealist who begin the class telling you that they don't believe that professor have all the knowledge about their subject matter. Feck man, I just payed good money for your course, you BETTER have the knowledge.
With one of them that said, turns out he was not far off: he didn't know anything. The last class before the exam, which he said would be special and important, he started by putting on John Lennon's Imagine and asking us to share our feelings about it... I still think I should have asked him to pay for my bus fare.
