What does Fnord mean to you?

Bob Dobbs, but if you want a real definition then here's one: http://www.dictionary.com/search?q=fnord

"Fnord" is a secret code word used between Mimind and Heyzeus that means...well, I better not say...

I don't remember. I think it is from a book. Isn't it what you are supposed to answer a yes or no question when neither yes nor no will work?

Here's a little something to amuse you and mimind: http://www.math.luc.edu/~vande/jabjargon.html

fnord is a fnord.. but more so!

It's been a while since I've read Illuminatus! but as I recall it has something to do with subliminal messages in advertising or something to that effect.

Fnord

1. A word used in electronic mail and news messages to tag utterances as surrealist mind-play or humour, especially in connection with Discordianism and elaborate conspiracy theories. "I heard that David Koresh is sharing an apartment in Argentina with Hitler. (Fnord.)" "Where can I fnord get the Principia Discordia from?"

2. A metasyntactic variable, commonly used by hackers with ties to Discordianism or the Church of the SubGenius.

The word "fnord" was invented in the "Illuminatus!" trilogy by Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson.

A Fnord is that sound people make when they're being sarcastic without actually wanting to pay much attention. It's kind of a cross between an exhalation and a snort. I think!

To me Fnord is a word used as a nonesense word as a reply to a nonesense situation. Its a kind of sarcastic snort.
