    I’m surprised Pam hasn’t used “FAFO” (cleaned up for the kids)“Fool Around & Find Out.”

    I haven’t heard anyone use YOLO since like 2013

    Yolo is a county in California. Add that to your useless fact list.

    She might have reminded her daughter of FOGTO — Fear Of Getting Time Out.

    Age doesn’t have as much to do with it as whether or not you hang out on the internet…

    Pam obviously doesn’t post on any forums or even read online celebrity gossip.

     

    Those two particular acronyms are older than either of her kids…

    A niece, now 28, went somewhere with me in her late teens, wearing a T-shirt with YOLO printed vertically down one long sleeve… so probably ten years ago.

    I knew what it meant without asking her…. and believe me, I was no middle schooler.

    Pam, why fear the inevitable? That’s one reason why I stopped trying to use slang back in the 80s.

    Don’t try being cool with your kids, Mom. It never works. My dad tried it when my friends were around. Horrible experience.

    Don’t they have air locks on that station? You know, the kind you flush bratty little kids out with.

    Huh…you really do learn something new every day. I always though YOLO mean You Obviously Love Owls. Who knew?

    The only acronyms I am familiar with are LIFO and FIFO. I prefer the FIFO method cause it always made more sense to me to do it that way.

    Way to go Pam you totally confused Brewster. He has no idea what an acronym is.

    it’s even worse when comic strip writers try to use it. “Cheugy” was a thing for about 3 days on TikTok. Both YOLO and FOMO are years gone now.

    FOUTWA leads to Anger. Anger leads to Hate. Hate leads to YOLO.

    It’s a vicious cycle.
