Get My Lingo? - A Post on "WTF"
Just to school some clueless folks:
-----------------------------------------------------
WTF
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
The initialism WTF can refer to:
- The World Taekwondo Federation, http://www.wtf.org/
- Working Title Films, a United Kingdom film production company.
Ahah! Below is the one I often use:
- An initialism for "What the f***?" in internet slang. Other, less frequently used meanings include: "Who/Where/Why/When the f***?" It has been said that this meaning is sometimes used in military parlance, expressed in the NATO phonetic alphabet as "Whiskey Tango Foxtrot".
- wtf is also the name of a command line acronym database, whose meaning is also "what the f***?". It first appeared in NetBSD 1.5, see e.g. http://netbsd.gw.com/cgi-bin/man-cgi?wtf++NetBSD-current

Hhmmm, "Whiskey Tango Foxtrot". Now that's a cool alternative! XD
