FUBAR

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia.

FUBAR is a term originally coined during the War of 1812, which stands for "Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition". The acronym was later adopted for a variety of uses, the most notably being the name of a 1990's boy band.

It also stands for "Fouled Up Beyond All Recognition". This is used in at least two ways:-- - When someone has soiled his trousers after drinking too much booze - When Mr. Bowdler wants to explain this acronym, he will use the word "fouled" instead of "fucked" especially in the company of women, children and especially the Queen.

[edit] History of The Term

During the War of 1812, General Rick Mercer ordered his troops to take control of a Tim Hortons. The heavily armed coffee outpost proved difficult to take, and many Canadian troops were lost. Once under his control, Mercer began taking advantage of the outpost's supplies. Unfortunately, the soldiers knew only how to shoot muskets, and knew nothing of making coffee and so instead of the double double and apple fritter that he requested, the soldiers brought him a steeped tea and a boston cream doughnut. Distressed by the extreme mixup, Mercer declared that his coffee was "fucked up beyond all reason", and so the name stuck.

After this initial declaration, the troops shortened the phrase to FUBAR and began to use it under a variety of different situations, ranging from culinary, to military and on more than one occasion, the cries of FUBAR were heard yelled from the barracks showers to describe deformities caused by bird shot wounds.

[edit] Rise and Fall of a Boy Band

At the beginning of the 1990's, three high school classmates from Canada discovered the ability to sing in harmony and dance in a choreographed manner. The teens entered a local battle of the bands competition hoping to show off their mad skills while raising money to build a new igloo for the local homeless population. They performed only one song, "Solid X" which would later become their breakout single. The crowd fell in love with the new sound and flashy dance moves and FUBAR was born.

The boys first album "Dancing Like Everyone's Watching" was released in 1993. Single included "Solid X", "Jesus is not my Homeboy" and "Cats are Bitches Yo!". The album was a hit among Canadian youth and Swiss bankers and went triple platinum three hours after release. FUBAR's second and final album drove the boys apart and put an end to the entire genre. The sophomore album entitled Cthulu" was an epic musical version of the classic children's book My First Necronomicon. FUBAR's front boy and die hard super-catholic Thad Duderson protested the album from the get go. Duderson argued that the album was based of off a blasphemous work and should not be recorded. Eventually giving into pressure, Duderson agreed to record the album, but left the group shortly afterwards.

[edit] Adoption by Microsoft

The Vista FUBAR Screen.

As complaints from users of Microsoft windows in regards to the blue screen of death(BSOD) increased, the company decided to address the issue in the first release of their new operating system Windows Vista. Shortly before the systems release, Bill Gates announced that users would now be informed their computer was about to die with a FUBAR screen. In an attempt to distance this screen from the BSOD, software engineers made this screen bright red. Users agreed that this screen was more pleasing to the eye, but provided no more assistance than the BSOD. To solve this problem, Microsoft added instructions on how to proceed from the FUBAR screen. These instructions were straight forward and users agreed they were both realistic and helpful.
