stupid question

[Voodoo Chick]

ok, i am very new to forums, posts, etc, etc.....oh, and a complete retard when anything"technological" is involved.....so, here's tonight's stupid question.......i have seen many abbreviations for sentences used, like "btw" "lol" and so on, these i know, but what does "ftw" mean??? i see it pretty often on this forum, and have no idea what it stands for.......

[Voodoo Chick]

[Voodoo Chick]

[HY35F2T]

I think thats why he smoked rock in the first place.LOL

[885.0stang]

my gramps was totally bald by 21.(not a good sign)

[Voodoo Chick]

they have lots of cool hair restoration processes now, so i guess baldness can be fixed. i would be lost without my hair, i think......i have had ass-length hair for so long, i would feel naked without it!! lol

I like to use The Urban Dictionary (http://www.urbandictionary.com)

[DirtyMax]

Next time ask your bff or just send this ttt. Sometimes when idk, I'm like wtf but I just lol and play along. Imo, it's the best way to blend in. Once you get good at that, you can start learning the 1337 h4x0rZ lingo, FTMFW!!!

I was born with a gray streak in my hair. I dye it and it's always there. Drives me nuts when I put my hair up and it shows. ):
