Like AKOM, AOBTD, TSMGO... but it took m some time as well. Being a dumbass myself.
TATDOOL has almost become the official title of the song. One can even pronounce it as a word. These abbreviations are a sort of Queen-weblanguage ! :-)
You think you're an idiot? I think I have you beat! In a recent thread talking about Queen album covers, someone mentioned how much they liked the four husky cartoon figures in A Kind of Magic as each one was a band member. I am REALLY looking at that cover, and I see now that one has Brian's curly hair, one has short black hair and a mustache and a good amount of teeth, one has blonde hair and sunglasses, and the fourth has short light brown hair. Queen were all so skinny, I never caught on that these figures were them! Duh. I need to go and watch that video. I think there are women figures in it as well.
Signed: Queen of the Idiots.

Please feel free to call me a dumbass
Yay, I learned what it meant! I guess that makes us both dumbasses, yay!
It took my best friend and fellow Queen fan to point out that the band were singing each other's names at different points during TIM from TM album.
I just thought they were singing rubbish until he pointed it out, and then it was so obvious!! I felt a bit stupid then

Yeah, that took me a while. Also with NOTW(News Of The World, LOL)these are the band members.
I still don't quite get the cover of I.
Well hello Dumbass, I am the Queen of Clumsy Dumbasses, nice to meet you!
I sometimes wrestle with the acronyms myself!
But its good, it gets the brain flowing!!
:-D
I love acronyms!
If I called you a dumbass, it would dull the full impact of any word I could call Bryan's Permed Poodle. I already have nough trouble thinking of a word strong enough to communicate the sheer pathetic nature of his intellegence without worrying about you weakening a negative word to describe somehody with.
Seriously, it's not a bit deal, just another acronym which you didn't figure out, probably because you didn't think about for very long.
took me a while to recognise the acronyms for some Bon Jovi songs and albums, and a few Queen songs, so lets all who-can't-figure-acronyms-out-the-first-time-round-but-then-find-others-really-easy-after-we-get-the-first-ones be dumbasses together! yay. ;-D
when i got the queen album i was fairly new to queen. when there where no lyrics to seven seas of rhye i thought there was a problem with the quality of my cd for the longest time. i felt pretty dumb when i figured it out.
I also have trouble with some of the acronyms for Queen songs; now I recognize a lot of them quickly, the ones that are used a lot. But it really throws me when someone uses the acronym for a song that is not refered to often; takes me forever to figure it out. Can make you feel stupid. But we are NOT stupid--just maybe not thinking on the same wavelength, ya know?
Thanks, Serry, for this link. I have seen it before, and thanks to The Fairy King for putting it together. Being that the aliens took my brain away years ago, I have lots of trouble deciphering Queen acronyms, so, duh, today I PRINTED IT OUT for quick and easy reference. There are approximately 120+ acronyms on the list.
