PRHGS - Should we use it as our "standard" geocaching activity descriptor


Recommended Posts

OK,

 

Isopropyl has proposed that we need to standardize on an acronym for the normally used set of words that describe geocaching (soas not to offend anyone.)

 

He has suggested: PHRGS

 

Mr. Rubbing Alcohol - quote:

We need to come with a suitable acronym for game - sport - pasttime - hobby (frolic is what Hippies do)

 

Game

Pastime

Sport that's GPS, but that might lead to confusion...somehow.

 

PH-GS Just add "Religion" and you get "PHRGS" which can be pronounced "Frogs"

-------------------------------

 

Mr. Funnyman - quote:

-------------------------------

How 'bout this acronym:

 

I really like this "RALFH" of Geocaching!

 

Recreational Activity

Leisure

Frolic

Hobby

 

Or, there is nuthin' like this "GO-ASAP" of Geocaching!

 

Game

Outdoor-Activity

Sport

Adventure

Pasttime

-------------------------------

 

I really don't like ANY of these.

 

With all of these possible letter combos to choose from, and rearrange, SOMEBODY suggest something catchy that we can use from now on:

 

(I am sick of writing, "I enjoy this (Religion / Recreational Activity / Leisure / Frolic / Hobby / Game / Outdoor-Activity / Sport / Adventure / Pasttime) of Geocaching very much!"

 

and "I enjoy the RRALFHGOASAP of Geocaching!" isn't gonna cut it either!

 

(and it's gittin' more silly each time!)

 

OK, using the following (rearrangeable) words, give us a neat catch catch-phrase to represnt it

 

(if you must, add your own word to get the letter you need, and you don't have to use all of them, either!):

 

=========================

Religion

Recreational Activity

Leisure

Frolic

Hobby

Game

Outdoor-Activity

Sport

Adventure

Pasttime

=========================

 

Thanks - Sillyman!

ROASH

 

I Googled on "roash" and this popped up on the first page (didn't actually click the link so do so at your own risk)

 

"Abu Roash. To get to Abu Roash you have to negotiate dumped and rusting vehicles,

then climb a steep escarpment. But the view is worth it."

 

That sounds like many of the caches I've been to.

 

Top that!

RASH


 

Now THERE is a good possibility!

 

Let's try it:

 

"I really love this new RASH of geocaching!"

"The RASH of geocaching has helped me loose some weight!"

"Honey, I'd love to do some of those Honeydos, but, I have a RASH to Geocache!"

 

A definate possibility!

 

Let's see if we gits some mo gooder than this one!

 

Then, next week, we will take the most gooderest and make a poll and vote on this most important and vital topic!

 

Loved all the possibilities, so far!
