Wikipedia Knows Too Much - Must Be Killed
Posted by Harvey at 11:05 PM | View blog reactions | Comments (16)

Alabama Improper asks the age-old question:

And just what the hell does IMAO stand for anyway? Anyone?

Being sworn to secrecy on pain of death as part of my allegience to Frank J. (praise be his name), I nevertheless take this opportunity to point out that - just as Joe Wilson's connection to Valerie Plame required no illegal leaks beyond picking up a copy of "Who's Who" - anyone with access to Wikipedia can discover the meaning of this highly secretive acronym.

I'll just quote it in the extended entry...


Imaw (sometimes mistakenly spelled as Imao) is the leader of the Adamyans in the fantasy soap opera (locally known as telefantasya) Encantadia, being aired by GMA Network in Philippine television.

Character background

Imaw goes to the kingdom of Lireo to helped helped by Minea because the kingdom of Adamya was fallen because of the powerful Hathors. Imaw is former leader of Adamyans who has been an adviser to Amihan when she became Queen of Lireo. Imaw can see the events that happened through his magical staff.

Now if you'll excuse me, I must flee Frank J's wrath...

Wow. Thanks, Harvey. It's all so simple now....

Hathor? Wasn't that a Goa'uld? Didn't Daniel Jackson waste her?

#2 - Posted by: Scott on November 7, 2005 11:23 PM

IMAO, I think IMAO stands for IMAO. Figure it out.

#3 - Posted by: John on November 8, 2005 12:12 AM

And I thought it meant something like:

In My All-knowing Opinion

or

In My Arrogant Opinion (as opposed to IMHO)

or

In My Ass's Opinion (when you're on very powerful medication, hallucinogenics, or if you're Jim Carrey whose ass apparently does talk)

#4 - Posted by: Phil on November 8, 2005 12:24 AM

In My Asshole Opinion, IMAO is a magical phrase to summon the raingods.

#5 - Posted by: littlejackhorner on November 8, 2005 12:32 AM

IMAW, often spoken as Imao means that one is about to luckily stumble upon a wild and weird discovery about some heretofore aspect out of the ordinary human consensus reality. The sudden recognition that one has had all the IMAW they ever needed, regardless of all the pain and suffering life has to share with us, can be so sudden that the person is overwhelmed with the power of the blissful awakening that oneself is Imaw and Imaw is oneself! (My emphasis). So it is too much for them and they compensate back into their traumatic narcissistic little shells, and block out the experience. But those of us with sufficient ego strength and the courage to do things even if you get wet and cold in the process, well, suddenly, we have a bit of a spring to our walk, and the trees bend down offering their fruits, and life is well, just better.

Does my website still not have a wikipedia entry?

#7 - Posted by: Frank J. on November 8, 2005 06:51 AM

Now this is an answer worth staying up all night to wait for! Yes, I couldn't sleep last night, the question of "what does IMAO stand for" kept pounding in my pretty little head.

I'll refer all three of my readers to you for this entry. Wait, I just looked at my sitemeter and I do believe I am being IMAO-lanched at this very moment.

And I am way better lookin' than your T-shirt chicky. Although she is pretty good lookin' herself (just incase she is someone's wife, or mistress, here. Or worse, some big time blogger that could destroy me before I get started)

Anyhooo, thanks fellas. ;-)

Mizz Alabama - SarahK's Frank's fiance AND a big-time blogger... you are SO destroyed :-D

Frank - Still no Wikipedia entry for you :-(

"Imaw can see the events that happened through his magical staff."

Does this mean that RWD and Space Monkey are magical? Or is it some other kind of staff?

#10 - Posted by: Editor2 on November 8, 2005 09:59 AM

It's gotta be something about assassinating monkeys...

#11 - Posted by: Kate on November 8, 2005 12:28 PM

It stands for International Monkey Assasin Organization!
Here's the proof!

#12 - Posted by: Wacky Hermit on November 8, 2005 12:37 PM

IMAO is the last four digits of a phone number (4626). Everyone associated with the monkey-slaying business knows that if you want the best, you call 1-800-976-IMAO. What a lot of people don't realize is that 1-800-976-4626 is also the number for 1-800-976-HOBO- which shows clearly that Evil Glenn is behind the whole thing, as he likes to kill hobos while he drinks his puppy shakes.

I've said too much.

#13 - Posted by: Army NCO Guy on November 8, 2005 01:35 PM

IMAO = HOBO...

Damn! That explains so much!!!

#14 - Posted by: JermCool on November 8, 2005 02:32 PM

Dear Mizz SarahK, please accept my most humblest of apologies. I forfeit, I am a potato head. You are the fairest of them all. ;-)

Thanks again for the IMAO-lanche.

I was just messin' around earlier when I made those comment this morning, I hope you know that.

#15 - Posted by: Mizz Alabama Improper on November 8, 2005 07:18 PM

Hathor? Wasn't that a Goa'uld? Didn't Daniel Jackson waste her?

That's what he told Osiris, anyway.
