Featured Replies

I've seen this used alot in this, and other forums, and haven't been able to figure out what it means.

 

 

 

So now I gave up and am going to ask you guys.

 

 

 

What does ftw mean?!?

For the win?

This is the way the world ends. Look at this [bleep]ing shit we're in man. Not with a bang, but with a whimper. And with a whimper, I'm splitting, Jack.

F the what. :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yeah, it means for the win.

And what does for the win mean?...

Like in football, "He's going to kick a field goal for the win"

Lots of people use it as "Fut the Wuck!"

Ghost: I am prejudice towards ignorance, so that would explain why I appear to be so.

It is not a joke. People really use it like that all of the time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"FTW" is sometimes erroneously used (or interpreted) as an intentional misspelling of "WTF"

Small margin of error, but I fixed it for ya.

What does that have to do with anything? All he did was give one of the meanings of the acronym. Since the threadstarter said he saw it on other forums too we have no idea how they use it on those forums.

This seems like a good place to get this cleared up...what does 'lol' mean? :?
