asdf

the first 4 letters in the home row. Commonly used by internet newbs to either spam a board, create topics, or "remind" another user that they are there and existant, demanding attention.


or...

asdf

The best 4 letters on a keyboard, they just happened to be in line. People often use it...just about anywhere. This is because the letters are so powerful, they can make up for complete essays, paragraphs, or just sentences.


even better...

asdf

1) Asdf can be used with qwertyuiop and ghjkl.
2) Asdf is what you say when you are angry.
3) Asdf is what you say when you have nothing to say.

If you'd bothered to look, the Wikipedia article cited the following as a source:

Donald G. Fink and H. Wayne Beaty, Standard Handbook for Electrical Engineers, Eleventh Edition, McGraw-Hill, New York, 1978, ISBN 0-07-020974-X, chapter 14, page 14-3 "Overhead power transmission"

You still haven't bothered to 'debunk' any of my first post, I'd like to point out. If all you're going to do is sling more shit and vomit more insults instead of addressing that with which you disagree - as you did from the get-go - then I'm done with ya.
