For others not up on all the modern anacronyms:

1. SNAFU - Situation Normal, All F'd Up - Thing are running normally.
2. TARFUN - Things Are Really F'd Up Now - Houston, we have a problem.
3. FUBAR - F'd Up Beyond All Recognition - Burn it to the ground and start over from scratch; it's totally destroyed.

Modern? SNAFU is from WW2. FUBAR is pretty old, too. The last word is “repair”, though, not recognition. I never heard of TARFUN.
