Definder - what does the word mean?

What is FUBAR?

I know it a little different:
Fucked
Up
Beyond
All
Recognition

Like when you try to save some money on a tune up and, in the process of doing it yourself, break your distributor body and, in the process of putting in a new distributor got the timing all out of place so the car won't run and breaks down twenty miles from home in the middle of the night. In that instance you would tell the towtruck driver "Well, I guess I fubar'd that damn thing (At least that's what I told my tow truck driver when I did it).

FUBAR - definition

Fucked Up beyond All Recognition. Generally used in the context of a situation/operation/mission that is messed up so bad it is beyond salvaging. FUBAR comes after ATFU. Also generally used when describing something that is akin to a Monkey Shit Fight.

When I started working for this company, I just figured their M.O. was SNAFU, however, after a few months, I realized they were just ATFU, now given their current state, they are FUBAR.
