Can someone please explain the abbriviations that are constantly used here?
I'm kinda new and it would be helpful if someone could describe what they mean.

Example- KBABZ , NT

KBABZ is just an abbreviation for our Tim from New Zealand's name.

NT means "neurotypical," or normal to someone who fits that category.

Cool I thought KBABZ was where Bin Laden was hiding.

Really, it wasn't!

Someone who I knew and trusted took offense to it when I told her that NT meant normal to a normal person. That was because she considered me normal and she really wanted to speak up for me and people like me.

*three awards*

KBABZ is actually the old name for my story, each letter is the first one from the four main characters at the time (now it's around about 15):

Koise
Booger
Aiko
Bob
Zoe

When I was on GameFAQs, before I got banned there, people kept spelling my name wrong, so I gave out awards to those who did. WP had a similar problem so I used it here too!

NT is short for Neurotypical. It's already been explained.

Well, yes it is, I wanted the title to be silly in nature so KBABZ was perfect, however I then changed my story to be a lot darker so KBABZ didn't work anymore, so first I chose Orphan but moved to Outcast.

That's interesting!

Well, in my hometown of Seattle I think there is the only kebab restaurant in the country. It's nice, but it is a bit of a hole in the wall!

Hmm did not know that about KBABZ. My user name is from a story I wrote to. Its the
main character "The Machine" and 1 refers to "won"....The Machine won.

You don't win awards for spelling it wrong. Unless you can get anti-KBABZ awards...
