When did the term "Murdered out" come to mean all blacked out?

What the hell does the three letters "FTW" mean at the end of a post, and where did that stupid sh it come from?

I'm sure there are other abbreviations that pi ss me off,(especially if they mean stupid crap like "for the world" so take the liberty and clue me in if you can think of one.

Aww kiss my ass Allen,...I shoulda known that there'd be somebody to make some retro 70's comment w/ regard to my understanding of where FTW originated from. Fortunately, I'm lucky that there is somebody current w/ all of the american slang, such as yourself to educate me, Great Grand Word Wizard.
FWIW, I use current "shortcuts" all the time. IMO some of them work as they're intended. So many others have some dumb assed origins, and I'll refuse to use them because I think they're stupid. ( like "murdered out", or "whip",.... 0r pretty much the any of the stuff that comes straight off of Pimp my ride)
This goes way back though,....I hate the word "chick" and never used Awesome, or Far Out or the stoner version, Far Fuc king out.

Sometimes I'll look at the abbreviation or word and figure it out, other times I'll have to just go w/it until I give up and ask. Other times it serves to keep the humor quotient in the forum intact.

(Remember, I'm the guy that wondered why somebody would wanna put a 351 W into a new Ford Edge, as opposed to putting a 351W into a new edge) ........however , now that I know the difference, I still think that calling that body style "new edge" is stupid.

Sometimes I'll get a comment like you made and LOL, better yet, I'll find them really funny and LMAO. (only coming from you, I have yet to find them that funny) I have yet to ever actually ROTFLMAO (my dog sheds really bad and I'd get all hairy)
It's been a little while, since there seems to be very few people (save 1 or 2) that I actually offend enough for me to tell them to STFU in the ensuing conversations. But that only happens when I make derogatory comments about the SN95 body style, or the 2 valve engine that it comes with.

Lastly there are those that think I did something wrong, or didn't like the way I did or said it. Although it's rare (that I don't care) to a few others, (and they know who they are) I don't give a RRA what they think.
(I just made that one up,...look at me......alll up w/ the new style lingo and shi t)
