I was scouting the various newspapers at office after having lunch. My eyes caught this word "SNAFU" mentioned in one of the articles. The word looked a bit familiar to me and I remembered coming across this word somewhere and it wasn't a normal word. As the adage goes, curiosity kills the cat, I came back to my cubicle and googled for the word. The moment I saw its expansion, I knew where I heard it, but what surprised me was the etymology of the word. The below two links give interesting and hilarious information about the word.

Wonder how many would feel SNAFU everyday in their life?
