Ftw

From Encyclopedia Dramatica

(Redirected from FTW)
Jump to: navigation, search

FTW means "For the win" or "For teh win". Can also mean WTF if the author is dyslexic.

Anyone who uses this terminology is engaging in old meme fuckery of the highest order. It's incredibly motherfucking obnoxious, ranking up there with people who still find the Flying Spaghetti Monster to be an amusing and original joke.

[edit] History

In old media, "for the win" was used on television game shows such as Hollywood Squares. In the show, a user would be one square away from winning the game. The user would then select that square, saying "I'll take center square for the win."

The term has retained its spirit, but is now very popular in online gaming communities such as World of Warcraft.
