BBS is an acronym for Belligerent Boys Summer - note that it is pronounced "Beta Beta Sigma." The term was coined in Boston during the summer of '22 and refers to a summer filled with general ignancy and shenanigans such as chugging Steel Reserve with the boys.

Guy One: Hey what if we figured out how to shotgun a 42 ouncer of Steel Reserve then ass branded ourselves with ΝΣΕ? Guy Two: That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Guy One: Sir I'll have you know its BBS! Guy Two: Oh yeah good point, let's do it!

BBS is an acronym for Bulletin Board System, which were old timey computer networks. Each was privately owned, and you would dial in to connect. Once there you could share text files/warez/pics, or talk about random stuff with other people. The first one went up in 1978, and they reached their peak in 1996 with over 5000 systems in the USA alone. They were essentially killed off by the Internet. Today, there's about 75 free dial-up BBS's left in the USA. There are hundreds of Telnet-only ones, however they have a tendency to suck.

textfiles.com is full of old BBS files.
