If your really serious about something positive, you could spell it this way - FTMFW
I'll let your imagination distinguish what the MF stands for.  :

Seems all the younger boys and girls use it exclusively although when actually talking to the younger boys and girls, they never say it. I guess it goes with all the lol iirc imho etc etc. SMS language has much to answer for.
