That's not new. TTFN, I heard that alot in the early 90s. It's the current kid slang, like rad and cowabunga was in the 90s.

TTFN!!! ...... TTFN is English..... It means Ta Tah For Now.... which means see you later... It comes from the Indian Raj in the 19thC when it was a comon phrase.

Interesting - here it got popular from the Winnie The Pooh cartoons, but I didn't know it was commonly used before Disney picked it up!

That's because it was picked up from us by US soldiers over here during WWII..... No doubt some of them then went on to work for Disney and took it with them. It's interesting because the phrase doesn't appear in any of the original AA Milne Pooh Bear books.

Holy crap! Twenty five replies for a simple question.
You guys crack me up. Well at least I know what it means now.
I just don't know if I can use it now without feeling like a copy cat.
LOL LOL LOL LOL LO........... it just doesn't feel right.
I'm going to come up with my own and make everyone feel dumb for not knowing what the heck it means. How about @#vbn naw that looks like when Q-bert curses. I must give this thought and meditation.
mark shaker:
Why was I not notified when the meaning of LOL changed?
Sure now it's "Laugh Out Loud", but for many prior decades it was "Lots of Luck".
