Notes: I haven't been able to locate the URL for my previous "bad" Japanese post. I may be able to on the actual computer I used when I found it. While searching, however, I found this little tid-bit on Wiki concerning the acronym for yaoi. Or more accurately, the backronym for it.

The blanket term "yaoi" is an acronym for the phrase "Yama nashi, ochi nashi, imi nashi", which means "no peak, no point, no meaning".
--> A backronym identifies it as "Yamete, oshiri (ga) itai" which literally means "Stop, my ass hurts!"
