    Ok I'm presuming I'm not the only one on here that doesn't know what most of the GTFO, FTW, QFT, UTFSEFFS stuff means, so you know the drill, if you have ever used one could you post it up with the full translation for me and my fellow ignorami? (now that has to be a word, I'm sure i've seen it written down). So far I've just made up my own meanings to them, all of them nonsensical in the context they are used, but hey your have to amuse yourself some how. I understand FTW means "For the win" so i'm one up already, now for the rest of them. (By the way, see how I slipped abbrs right there into the very thread title of the thread about abbreviations, see, see how I did that, take a look, see how I did that my friend, hey, huh? see? Clever yes?, yeah you know you like that, admit it!)

    "See how i tricked you there!". well played sir.

    Eh, im in the same boat more or less, i think QFT is Quoted For Truth or something or other, +1 is agreeing with a post (not an abbr obv), obv is obviously lol, which brings me to lol = laugh out loud (no less), lmao = laughing my ass off, which i have no idea what it literally means. My ass has never actually fallen off whilst laughing heartily. lmfao inserts an expletive of some description in there.

    UTFSEFFS?
    Use the fúcking search, for fúcks sake. With the extra "E" added for phonetic effect?

    GTFO: Get the fúck out.
    QFT: Quoted for truth.

    Bart: What's that extra B for?
