Abbreviations..

 .
Abbreviations are rife in medical (whether it be human or veterinary) literature and therefore, understandably, one could appreciate the pain that noobular students go through when they first encounter such elite jargon.

The following is courtesy of SB, following a highly intellectual discussion on TRP, LDA and ALT (traumatic reticulo-peritonitis, left displaced abomasum, alanine transaminase);

SB: Silly vets and their abbreviations
Lan: Yerr. To know the GFS, you need to do a FRV, using a TBQ and PNB, looking for signs of WQEGT.
Yes that was made up.
SB: To know the global fish supplies you need to do a feed reality validation using a tangential Bohr's question and pedantic Newton bets, looking for signs of we-got-errors-gobsmacking-teachers
Lan: ..can't believe you actually bothered to do that.
