Making a Decision on WTF
You’re probably familiar with WTF, and what it stands for, which may be something not so family-friendly, depending upon how you’ve chosen to interpret it, if you’re interpreting it in a manner that differs from what it really means.
Well, there are plenty of alternatives for what it could mean. This include:
What? It’s Friday!?
What The Frak?
What The Fudge?
What’s That, Fudge?
Where’s The Fudge?
Who’s The Fool?
Where’s The Fridge?
What’s That, Friend?
Want The Fudge?
Who’s That Freak?
When’s The Frenzy?
What The Find!
Where’s The Frill?
Why The Fluff?
Watch This Fist!
Watch This, Friend.
Watch The Food!
Where’s The Food?
Where’s The Flood?
However, I am choosing to believe that it stands for “What the Flowchart!?”
I like that one.
You can even incorporate it into your everyday conversation.
“What the flowchart is that!?”
People will say, “Huh?”
And you reply, “WTF.”
People that are unfamiliar with the Internet will repeat, “Huh?”
And then you say, “It stands for What The Flowchart?”
Then they’ll be like, “Well, what is that supposed to mean? That doesn’t even make sense.”
And, then you’ll say, “It’s an Internet thing.”
And, then they’ll just shake their heads.
And then they’ll start texting “WTF” to their kids.
You might think that’s funny. But, it’s not. If their kids don’t know what WTF means, then they’ll now know that it stands for “What the Flowchart?” If their kids did know what it means, then they’ll think their parents are cool. Maybe.
Either way, win-win.
So, remember, WTF stands for What The Flowchart!? Spread the word. We can clean up the Internet one acronym at a time!
Maybe “Where’s the Falcon?”
I’m inspired by the cable TV version of Die Hard, where his famous line is dubbed as, “Yippee Ki A Mr Falcon.”
That works.
You the man!
I can only think of one more … Way Tepid Flutes
“They were cold before, WTF?” hehee
You could warm your flutes up, just not in the microwave.
Being a bit of a potty mouth myself I can definitely say it doesn’t stand for What the Flowchart. DAH!!!
Everyone knows it stands for Water the Flowers…..:)
I’ve decided it now means: Where’s the Footnote?
