Chap. 15 of Grapes of Wrath tells of these abbreviations on a sign in the diner: IITYWYBAD. I'm told this stands for "If I tell you will you buy me a drink?" Does anyone know of a source that would confirm? I've checked guides and criticism of GW and popular culture books and language/slang guides--no luck so far.
