Forum Newbie Help

[ShavingPrivateRyan]

Hello Everyone,
As the title suggests I am new to badger and blade. I am also new to forums in general. I just wanted to ask the community to help ease my initiation a little and fill me in on some of the lingo. I have searched FAQ and the forums and can't find anything so I will just swallow my pride and admit that I need a "baptism by fire".

I have managed to figure out DE is double edge, SE is single edge but that's about it. People throw terms around like BBS (baby bottom shave maybe??), YYMB or something like that. If anyone feels like taking the time to just list the "industry terms" they use and what it means that would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you both for your advice and for taking it easy on me. I actually found that abbreviations page right before I came back to check this post. I always have been terrible at finding things
