WTF - camping terms?
« on: June 19, 2016, 06:48:54 AM »
Bit of fun. I see this term a bit of late. Seems it can have different meanings. Despite the obvious, what's your definition? Also what other one's do you have? (Courtesy rumpig)

For me WTF = Where's the Fire

Maybe we should broaden the terms we have camping definitions for....

I regularly camp with the same group, and we have 2 rules in our group.

Rule number 1 - DFU (don't F$^# up)
Rule number 2 - DOA (don't over achieve)

A breach of either rule will result in relentless ridicule and pay-out from the rest of the group.
