It can be used as a noun (in which case it's something that hopefully causes the victim to re-evaluate their opinions by means of a short sharp shock) or a verb (in which case it means to apply a short sharp shock). Most often used as a euphemism for sending complaints to an ISP, as in "I've just LART-ed that spammer". > UBE/UCE Unsolicited Bulk e-mail Unsolicited Commercial e-mail This is a widely argued topic - short version, IMHO, is UBE = I send 100 of my friends a e-mail warning them of a new virus = UBE. I send 100 strangers a link to my website to buy my widgets = UCE. > Are the acronoyms in the FAQ?
