KAWA

[miekec]

KAWA stands for "Kill All With Axe". It's an acronym that we've used for a long time now, and has been adopted by others as well. I have no clue where it comes from originally (nor does a quick google search reveal it). It's quantifyable, of course:
KAWBA -- Big
KAWFHA -- F***ing Huge
KAWFHDSA -- F***ing Huge, Double Sided. You know, for those really bad days.

Somehow, there are many, many days that require the use of it. Things done wrong. Idiots that just don't get it. Designs with major flaws-- that nobody caught. PEBCAKs. Lying vendors and drug reps. Un-usable tools. Scheduling F-ups.

Today is definitely one of those days. A plain KAWA one, but still.

Sounds to me like it comes from Zork. If you killed the troll, you could recover his axe and use it as a weapon. And verb-object[-with-object] is a standard Zork parser construction.

KAWA...

We came up with it the Christmas you were very pregnant... as a way to signify frustration. :) Glad to know that it's finding it's way around to other people...
