Say what you want but i found this in the dictionary. if you don't beleive me look it up yourself.
The exact definition strait out of the book:
nim1-nimmed,nimming,nims. Archaic. To steal;pilfer.
or
nim2-n. games. A game in which players in turn remove small objects from a collection, such as matchsticks arranged in rows, and attempt to take, or avoid taking the last one.
Your choice!

While this is notable, we are referring to NIM, not nim. NIM may be a word and not an acronym, but it is different from NIM.

No Intended Meaning
Never Inhaled Marijuana
Never Ingest Mice
(Or the other tenses)
Never Ingested Mice
Never Ingesting Mice
No Iodine Ma'am
New Intergalactic Machine

Whatever they are, people have come up with hundreds, you can't expect me to remember ALL of them from ABG.
If you look in the dictionary for NIM, well, you're a newbie!

Nugatory Information Materalizing might be quite applicable to the NIM threads.

How could you fools posibly hope to even grap the concept of NIM .. you pathetic fools ... you just don't understand do you ???
NIM is beyond definition .. NIM is definition ... NIM is all ... NIM is nothing ... but most importantly, NIM is NIM !!!!

I have grasped the CONCEPT of NIM! Just not the whole idea....

I have Solved the mystery!!!! Today I saw a car driving through Florida with an Ohio license plate that was NIM-120 (notice the number). I believe this is the "unity Car"!!!
Itried to get a look at the driver to see if it was Captain Garland!!!!!!!!
DHE_X2 posted 11-26-98 02:16 AM ET
I think Garland should have a goatee.
AUH20 posted 11-26-98 02:29 AM ET
Like Captain Sheridan? Of course, Captain Sheridan could kick Garland's ass.
Yo_Yo_Yo_Hey posted 11-26-98 03:34 AM ET
I always pictured Garland as a lanky, clean shaven man, with medium length brown hair!
That's just me! Never a goatie, he just seems to weak to have one, & goaties may not be popular in 60 years!

That wasn't Garland ... he would have a Canadian Licence plate !!!
N1M : Defined
Look in the Canadian 8th Faction for Humanity for it's true meaning !!!
As for Sheridan beating Garland, maybe .. Garland is a rookie Captain ... on the other hand ,,, Another Canadian would whip Sheridans @$$ any day of the week ... he goes by the name of Captain Kirk !!!
