I was just at Fark and came across an acronym that I don't understand. What does UFIA stand for? I've presumed that it's a little dirty, but I still want to know.

Okay, I finally broke down and looked it up on Wikipedia:
UFIA is an acronym used on the website Fark.com for the phrase "unsolicited finger in the anus," based on the site's description of a trial involving a US high school football player who allegedly poked some of his clothed teammate's anuses. In the trial, the judge ruled that the action was not intended as a criminal or sexual act. Fark.com summarized the ruling with the line "an unsolicited finger in the anus, while crude, is not criminal". Users on the site, as of 2005, regularly use the acronym UFIA as a shorthand for this phrase.
While some believe that the phrase is a direct quote from the judge, no such quote appears in any of the known stories refering to the trial.
In a recent contest on Fark.com, users were asked to name Boston's Fleet Center Arena, as Fark.com Founder Drew Curtis purchased the naming rights to the arena for a single day. The most popular name was, UFIA Arena. However, due to negative connotations associated with the name, this name was rejected by the owners of the Fleet Center. The name finally chosen was the Fark.com Boston Garden.

Fark was one of the winners for that? They didn't make mention of that on the news here.... They were probably all busy reporting on some lady who lives alone with 2 cats and was charged $49,000 on her water bill.
