Erm, ok here's my facepalm....and I think it's a really bad facepalm, but don't all kill me
When I was really little my sister was playing BS (the card game) with some friends, and I kept asking her what BS stood for and she wouldn't tell me. Finally she told me it stood for Baloney Stupid. I believed her for years, until I realized what it actually meant (Whoops....)
Naah ^^ It stands for "In my opinion" by the way. Actually I don't like using IM speak myself, though I usually try to make sure I'm familiar with it since other people like to use it so much. Even when I'm texting I write out all the words, because using texting abbreviations like "omg ur soo rite i mean wat ru doing 4 tmrrw?" makes me feel like I'm stupid :silent:
For example, if there's some slang thing that people are using that I don't know, I look it up here:
www.urbandictionary.com
That's cute ^^
I used to think FTW was just a variation of WTF, purposely misspelled. You know how some people write "Teh" instead of "The" as a misspell on purpose? I thought it was like that. Funny thing is that FTW and WTF are used in basically opposite situations, so whoops
::EDIT:: I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT I EPICALLY FACEPALMED EVERY TIME I SAW SHEWHOSHALLNOTBENAMED'S FACE BEING RUBBED ACROSS SKYWARD SWORD'S CAMERA SCREEN IN OBSESSIVE MODE LIKE SHE DESERVED LINK'S/YOUR ATTENTION KAYTHANKSBAIIWINSYSTEMSARIANAE+1VSSYSTEM-1

I don't know much IM speak. I don't know what IMO is, for example. I guess that's another faceplam.

There was this one time when I thought FTW stood for Free Turtle World.
