For years I thought it meant 'so much hate' I recently learned it means 'shaking my head'.

any others throw you guys off? I'm not completely sure what RTTP means.

I thought it was so much hate when I first joined GAF. Amazingly most of the time they're interchangeable.
 
I looked up smh after I started seeing it pop up in my facebook feed a few years ago. I only recently learned what rttp stood for. Initially thought it meant RIP to the party for some insane reason.
 
I'm with you, OP. I also thought QFT stood for Quit Fucking Talking. Changed the context of a lot of discussions :|

I figured out RTTP and LTTP, though.

Same.
I figured out what it meant a while ago, but that's what I thought originally as well.

In general I'm not much of a fan of acronyms which can possibly be unclear/misunderstood

I knew what it was!

But until a few weeks ago, I thought RTTP were people being racist dickbags - "Rate to the Party."
 
Known 'smh' as long as I can remember.

I remember when I was new to GAF I thought LTTP was "Link to the Past" soft referencing the Zelda game, but meaning you were playing an old game. So I got the 'meaning' right, but missed what the actual abbreviation was.
 
Hmm, always knew, I guess. When I'm not sure about an acronym, I just google it. Why not?

Urban Dictionary FTW
 
When my friends first started using it I was initially so upset because I didn't know what it meant and I thought it was dumb.

LBR was also another, but now that's become one of my favorite acronyms.

I always knew SMH, but LBR? What's that? :s

QFT isn't even used properly these days.

It was originally intended to be a way to make someone accountable for something they said.

If they went back and edited their post, the QFT post would have the original text in it still.
 
I was introduced to it a few years ago when I read a thread where Mully was being himself and everyone was posting SMH.
 
wait..... LTTP is "Late to the Party"???? I thought it was a "Link to the Past".

On second thought, I like my assumption better.
 
SMH was actually one that I understood right away. There are others though that took a long time before I figured out what they meant.
 
In the punk scene I grew up in, ftw meant fuck the world. I prefer that meaning over the stupid meaning that acronym now has on the internet.
 
I get by without having to know most. lttp and smh I know from being used here a lot. But no one that I socialize with uses them except maybe the odd lol
Should be dfcbtwdip dont fucking care but then why did I post
 
For a little while on here I couldn't figure out what FTFY meant until it finally clicked with someone actually bolding the part of the quote they changed.
