The error message given by a modem when the telephone line carrier signal is lost. In the days of BBSs this was a frequent occurrence, often at the very moment someone was typing a sentence. Loss of signal would cause a string of garbage characters to be displayed to the recipient.
In later years this gave rise to an unending joke, depicting someone getting forcefully interrupted or otherwise cut off the internet, out of spite, in the middle of a particularly boring thought, irritating tirade, or some Famous Last Words.

Somewhat of a new gen... He is an archer slowly rising to the top of the game. Absolute tank status will be acquired within the next 2 weeks. He was former Autobots and Canada, and is probably inside of your Dad right now. Respect this man and only use his name for good.

A woman who's job is to be pregnant every 9 months. She pops out babies after babies which enables her to be unemployed and drain government money.
Ashley is always pregnant. Why is she such a carrier? Her fat ass needs to stop popping out babies and get a job at Walmart!

When I first heard Steven talk, I assumed he was gay, but then I met his wife and realized that he was just a carrier.
