Snafu:

Nonsexual military jargon for: Situation Normal, All Fucked Up.

Quote: Lawrence Paros, The Erotic Tongue (1984): 'World War II begat a host of lesser imitations of SNAFU , the best of which include COMMFU (a Complete Monumental Military F* *k-up), FUBAR (F* *ked Up Beyond Recognition), FUBB (F* *ked Up Beyond Belief), FUMTU (F* *ked Up More Than Usual), CPU (General F**k-up), and IMFU (Immense Military F**k-up). Complicating matters even further were Joint Anglo- American F* *k-ups (JAAFU] and Joint Anglo-Chinese F* *k-ups (JACFU). With luck, things were SAMFU (SelfAdjusting Military F* *k-ups), but often they could only be described as TARFU (Things Are Really F* *ked Up) or TAFUBAR (Things Are F* *ked Up Beyond All Recognition).'
