What does the idiom “FUBAR” mean?
Definition:
Hopelessly ruined, not working, messed up.
For example:
“This project was a bad idea from the start. Now it’s FUBAR. Blame the boss.”
Notes:
This is from World War II slang, “Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition,” and thus somewhat obscene, but often used in its acronym form. It’s also sometimes used to mean “drunk.”
