What's with the "v." in all the click & brag threads???

I see the "v." in many of the thread titles in the click and brag forum lately. I don't get it


This was only going back two pages in the C&B forum:

Latest details™ v.belated Christmas gift

Today's detail v. dirty mats, lots of pics

Recent details™ v.New Detailer's Pride and PB's EX w/carnauba

Latest Two v. BMW& Acura

Recent Details - v. Overcoming Arachnophobia x 2 and a Horse

I thought it was 'versus' but it still does not any sence.

There was an explanatory post some time back. It is supposed to mean Version ala software where you find "product name vx.x".

Today I see something new, the TradeMark logo. I seriously doubt that "latest details" is trademarked.

Recent Details version Overcoming Arachnophobia x 2 and a Horse still does not make sence to me. But I admit to old age and not being 'hip with the kids'.

I heard someone say "groovy" the other day, now that took me back 30 years.

Think of each "version" as a chapter in a book of someone's life of detailing.

book title = Recent Details

Chapter one: '69 Camaro Z28, $100 Bronco, Durability Updates
Chapter two: 3 Bottles of Wine
Chapter three: Overcoming Arachnophobia x 2 and a Horse

And so on...

Get it now?

i think i noticed scottwax using it first. either other people aren't too creative and can't think up their own, or they think its some sort of standard for a click and brag post.

I think scott TM'd it as a joke in response to the amount of people using it.

I doesn't to me either. I had also thought it stood for "versus" and then since that doesn't make sense, then though t it was extremely short for " view".

I guess what is meant here is that each individual detail job is a different version of the partiuclar person's overall act of detailing.
