Ob-: /ob/, pref. Obligatory. A piece of netiquette
acknowledging that the author has been straying from the newsgroup's
charter topic. For example, if a posting in alt.sex is a response to a
part of someone else's posting that has nothing particularly to do with
sex, the author may append ‘ObSex’ (or ‘Obsex’) and
toss off a question or vignette about some unusual erotic act. It is
considered a sign of great winnitude when one's Obs
are more interesting than other people's whole postings.
