    Nice shout out. To "86" something means to ignore or trash it. It was first reported to be used around the Great Depression. There are a few explanations as to where it came from, but popular consensus says that it was formed in the restaurant industry. It also can refer to a hit on someone. A mobster was sometimes sent out to "86" a rival mob member. Later, QD.

    RU486 is exactly what it sounds like when you read it:

    "Are You For 86"

    Basically, are you pro-abortion. Abortion in the sense of 86-ing your unborn child. Later, QD.
