The purpose of this FREEWARE HYPERCARD STACK is to provide an
introduction to a MIRTHFUL use of ACRONYMS on the INTERNET. Have you
ever wished you had a better alternative to LOL? Or thought "Who
makes up these WITTICISMs?" Well anybody can, you can! Don't say
you're JUST TOO BUSY! and you don't want to READ A MANUAL. You can
create an ACRONYM out of ALMOST ANYTHING! You can make them from any
old CLICHE, use them to tell people to SHUT UP, state that THAT'S NOT
FUNNY, tell a GIRL that she's FEMININE, SMILE a SMUG SMILE or just
find FLAWS in the MEMORY of a UNIVERSITY EINSTEIN.

Take a DIRTY MIND, add a CHUCKLE, stir in a QUIP, and a QUANTITY of
SNORTING, stick on a DISCLAIMER, and that's THE WAY THINGS ARE!

You can politely tell people to PISS OFF, PUT A SOCK IN IT, BE CIVIL
or tell them THAT'S CHILDISH. You can tell people that they're
talking BOLLOCKS! And if you're ON A ROLL, you can create a HUMDINGER
of a reply to someone who won't TRY ONSCREEN HELP.

So who began this BIZARRE ADVENTURE through the ALPHABET? A CRAZED
KIWI and an ABNORMAL IRISH man with a DIRTY MIND, who found
themselves making up LAUGHTER ACRONYMS during their EPISTLES to the
ANTIPODES - a sequence of combinations started when TONY MCCOY
O'GRADY (MAXIOGEE) sent ANGELA BRETT AN EMAIL about his SLEUTHing in
some of her SHAREWARE. They decided not to continue DOING NOTHING
about their HILARIOUS ACRONYM stash, so they compiled them into this
STACK, and in the process created a SUPERHERO called MACGIRL, her
SIDEKICK KEYBOARD, and many DASTARDly VILLAINs.
