Otters??

Off topic= ot= otters.

hmmm, when it's written down I can see perhaps it's not the most obvious.

Do you mean fb statuses??

The term Otters, comes from Off Topic'ers which has been lovingly nicknamed as the Otters, ie frequenters of Off Topic.

And secret otter was secret Santa for the ot-ers.

Thank you makes perfect sense now!! Nutella - not sure I quite meant statuses I mean the bit below where you write your post, a lot of people refer to Otters there, I think I mean the Signature part at the bottom?!

Ah yes - OTers became Otters.

Now we're vaguely obsessed with all things Otter-y. They're otterly wonderful.

I have a feeling it was Mini who once meant to write OTers and it autocorrected to otters. And it stuck.

And you my dear are otterly hilarious! ?

Yes it's all about the Otter love these days Gracey!

I have many an autocorrect fail- bit I'm sure it didn't gone about because of me did it?

I take it back, I completely made that up! In fact AC must be credited for the creation of the Otters:
