DarkAngelBGE Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 What does it stand for? As fast as possible? I think I have heard it in some military film the first time. Always wondered where andh ow it developed.Anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Tutankhamun Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 I believe it means 'As Soon As Possible'.Might have started from a military area, many times I hear "we're taking heavy fire, bring in those renforcements A-Sap". Where they make it almost like a word itself, A-Sap, instead of a four syllable asap.As for who and where, I do not know. But I will look around.

ElfTheHunter Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 It does indeed mean As Soon As Possible, but I've ever always said as A-S-A-P... not A-Sap, never heard that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

av_nefardec Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 I've heard it both ways - btw, we call that an acronym, not a string though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Op Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 I only remember hearing A-Sap in a Gulf War mod for Battlefield 1942 (called Desert Combat). I always hear others call it A-S-A-P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chichigrande Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 IT does stand for As Soon As Possible. I've always said it asap and not A.S.A.P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
