IMHO, it all evolved from TOS, being a well established acronym in this forum for a site whose name must not be mentioned here (see older posts, and books of J.K. Rowling).
TAS: There were repeated discussions about to weight of that electronic concave costal section in the forum. Taking into account that forum discussions are archived and distributed on DC/DVD, links to that site will be broken soon and turn useless. Some forumers decided to circumvent the original name of that site (erroneously assuming this name itself triggered anger) and soon TAS arose, pointing to That Auction Site. In fact, there even was a decision some years ago that pure auction stuff should not spoil this forum.
TSS: I guess that was created in analogy, calling it That Search Site.
HTH
