Pot, piece, pile - any one will work. I'm reminded of a piece by P.J.
O'Rourke where he said "Here (Lebanon) you will hear your travel documents
demanded by a variety of mis-pronunciations - 'Show me your bizport...
bassboat... pisspot...'"

Also, here's a site with lots of Internet acronyms explained:

Sometimes we have to use acronyms because using the actual words would get
the message cancelled. ;)

But yes, piece, pot, pile, of something smelly.

I looked at the website: http://www.gaarde.org/acronyms/
but strangely there wasn't anything such as FK, fuck knows.
We will normally indicate that by holding forefinger and thumb encircled
around the nose.

It also stands for "Point of Sale" in the business world, refering to
software and hardware designed to work together out of the box (a "turnkey"
system) as a cashier station, for example.
