| From: Laura McBurnie To: vocalist Subject: the meaning of GoAT Send reply to: VOCALIST <vocalist>
Ok, ok, I can see it's not as common a term among Vocalisters as among some of my other groups. :) GoAT is an acronym for Go Away, Troll! "troll" refers to the act of trolling a newsgroup or list by posting something sure to generate angry, shocked, or just plain disgusted responses- just to get the rise out of people. GoAT saves on keystrokes and still tells the troll (and anyone else) that they're a troll and won't get any fun here. Sorry guys, I didn't mean to be cryptic- that's not the strong suit in my Fach! :) -- Laura McBurnie, Soprano (of the soubrettish variety) BMus Vocal Performance Student, Dalhousie University Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada 902-496-0360 ICQ#1871734 http://is2.dal.ca/~lmcburni/lhome.html lmcburni-at-is2.dal.ca Song in my head right now: "Tarzan Boy" -Baltimora (not my choice, but it was on my brother's radio and got stuck in my head)
