FUBAR, SNAFU, BOHICA...and others. All are used in many places, especially in the military. I'm sure if you do a search for it on Google or something you'll find many more as well.

A little on the subject, how many have heard acronyms for the US ARMY tapes?

US ARMY  -->  Uncle Sam Aint Released Me Yet

US ARMY  <--  Yes My Retarded Ass Signed Up

About the German origin: It comes probably from the word furchtbar ~ horrible,terrible.
