    Default What does this mean

    Ok, Im having an argument with my friends about "FTW"

    I know it means "F$%# the World" and "For the Win" but has anyone here used it or heard it used as "F#$% the what?"

    All my friends say its never ever used for and I think I've heard it in other places.

    Please help me on this...

    Thanx, Indybird

    At first, I thought FTW was "F**k the What?!," but it turns out it is "For the Win."

    People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.

    I know this is weird, but I say it all the time. See I like to say things backwards, and one of my friends said 'what the f**k' and I turned it around and said 'f**k the what'. LOL, i guess

    I hate HP. Yet here I am, using a HP G60 Series notebook with an HP desktop sitting at my home desk.... But the best part is that it was all free. Now slowly switching to Dell stuff!

    Originally it was F**k the world (like mid 70s or so).
    Could be also "For the win" or "F**k the what" (which is backwards for WTF).
