bonk/oif
/bonk/, /oyf/ In the {MUD} community, it has become
traditional to express pique or censure by "bonking" the
offending person. Convention holds that one should
acknowledge a bonk by saying "oif!" and there is a myth to the
effect that failing to do so upsets the cosmic bonk/oif
balance, causing much trouble in the universe. Some MUDs have
implemented special commands for bonking and oifing.
