Acronym Definition HTFU Harden The F*** Up HTFU Hurry The F*** Up (polite form) Meaning depends upon the context.

and trust me, HTFU as a personalized plate in CA doesn't fly. I tried. Even sent in the "Latin" that HTFU abbreviated... said it was our family motto: H abeo T empestas F ortunatus U sus or: To control the storm is a positive thing/experience... something like that: habeo habui habitum : to have, hold, possess / consider, regard tempestas : storm, weather (how cool is that - the "STORM" thing with the Buells? fortunatus : fortunate, lucky, happy. usus : use, experience, skill, advantage Even with all the above documentation, the CA DMV didn't buy it and DENIED my application for the personalized plate!! (yeah, it was a stretch)

Wouldn't it be funny if everyone posted as anonymous, just once, say on April First, as a joke to see if the admins would out everybody? (Would testing the admin's sense of humor be a valid reason? Just asking.)

Every time I read a moto-rag that complains about the Buell's shaking archaic motor, I say, "HTFU you Singer lover. If I wanted a lifeless ride, I'd buy a Camry." So I thing Buell should engrave and color the letters on the Air Box cover of all their Press bikes so when they are riding it, they know they need to inflate their boys to properly write about.

Why so hostile? You read the check box description didn't you? Post as "Anonymous" (Valid reason required. Abusers will be exposed. If unsure, ask.) You telling me to shut up? If by "snitch" you mean "to inform the authorities." I've got news for you. Yes I realize I am a smart ass. No you shouldn't be upset, it's all in fun. If you got embarrassed, well, don't post as Anonymous.

Dave I am willing to wager more than a few quid that there were more than impure thoughts between Ol Donnie and Marie so I ammend my statement "Holy Bay City Rollers Batman"

Hey Travis (Torquemonster) You can even use my Latin translation. The Latin words are absolutely legitimate... the "meaning" was a bit of a stretch. Good luck. Apparently HTFU has been around enough that the "Thought Police" network can squash it for license plates (bummer) - but still, good luck!
