Talkbass slang

Sign in to disble this ad
Im kinda new here to talkbass and ive been picking up slang words here and there like IMO or +1. Those are a couple of the hundreds of em. Can anybody shed some light on where to find a slang posting or maybe someone could list them on this post?

IIRC, there's a thread around here that sums up all we could think of, FWIW. Of course, YMMV IMHO.

We mostly use regular Internet slang here (IMO is "in my opinion"). +1 is unique, as far as I can tell, but it means you agree.

+1/2/1000 appears in other places as well, but means you agree.

Mostly TLAs, but a few 4LAs.

Carrots, the Qintar, and whatnot are things that you cannot be taught about.

You must experience them yourselves.
