HEI FTMFW!!
The best is when I try to tell people about thier check engine lights. Ohhhhhh maaaaaaan, they give me this crazy look like "all I want you to do is fix it"
Then I tell them to buy a lot of parts or GTFO and go to a shop.

The term "dizzy" used in place of distributor bothers me to no end. 
I know theres many on here that use that term, sorry to offend you. But it sounds like something someone from london should say.
"Oi! Did you check the dizzy cap under your bonnet, mate? Is it getting petrol?"

Or calling a transmission an A4 or an M6. Did that notation come from video games?

I thought the M6 had something to do with the order or something to do with the build sheet? T56 comes from Tremec (now it does anyway instead of Borg Werner) right?

It doesn't describe the trans, just the #of gears. Is it a 700R4, a 4L60, a 4L60E? Which 6 speed is it, there are a number of configurations and gear sets. It's honestly more annoying when people look for tech help or info on retrofits.
And I hate lazy-ass shorthand.

Well by that standard you should also hate "LS1 T56" or similar. People should be putting part numbers for the transmission especially when they are not selling the item but only describing it in a post about what configuration his/her car has so we know what gears it has in the case too 
Jackass I am going to hold you to this standard now

Well I can see it in that case, I guess I didn't think of that. I was thinking if I said I had an M6 in my car, it is more likely than not that you would know what transmission I'm talking about.
But I guess if the car is unknown than your point is valid.

Yeah, but A4 is pretty generic, as is M5...
BTW-
MM6 is the RPO for the six speed I believe.
