When people say Happy Days at the end end of a convo. Or where I grew up - Appy Daze, what does it even mean, question or a statement, or random reference to a 1970s sitcom ?

Haha wait you two hear me out! Fab is often an abbreviation people use for "fabulous". Fabs is not a word. Therefore I prefer saying/writing fabs because I don't want the confusion, also (quite appropriately for this thread) I hate the word fab!
