Ah yes, one of those immortal technical abbreviations. RTSM (read the stupid manual), PEBCAK (problem exists between chair and keyboard), CUIE (computer-user interface error)...

Ah, here we use the less subtle: RTFM

and occasionally after a lab reboot we end up with a SNAFU.

The really weird thing about FUBAR, it's something I tend to recognise quite easily...

And, curiouser and curiouser, for me fubar tends to come with either 'here we go again' or 'welcome back, my old friend'.
