PFAF

Acronym - Posting For A Friend

Posting, as a favor, to a mailing list or a forum for someone who is not on the aforementioned mailing list or forum. The friend does not have to sign up to get the benefits of membership. The poster writes "Posting for a friend" with the hope that he will not be tied to the post, nor get the further inquiries. Most of the time this does not work.

Pfaffism

1 the religious practice or ethical logic based on the teachings or musical proverbs of a certain musical professor at SUNY Plattsburgh and designating him as a minor deity in the order of musical gods and goddesses.

2 a phrase characteristic of said professor from Plattsburgh, NY often but not necessarily relating to counterpoint or the academic study of Classical Music. Examples may include “That’s a sexy texture in that counterpoint,” “Many things will become clear for you this weekend,” or, after talking about Wagner's 25 year opera, “it's a wonder if you live that long, you could've been run over by a meat wagon.”
“As a recent convert to Pfaffism, Sarah was ready to share the good news of Cadential Six-Fours with anyone willing to listen."
