A

Also Cocks
A phrase derived from the infamous Ridin' Spinnaz YTMND. Used in a non-sequitur way to end a statement.
Amirite
A contraction of "Am I right?" Commonly used after distasteful jokes. An example would be if somebody was talking about Courteney Cox, followed by another person stating, "Courtney Cox, more like Caught-any Cocks, amirite?" or "Halo, more like GAYlo, amirite?! AMIRITE?!"

B

BRBFBI
Abbreviation, be right back, [the] FBI [is at my door]. Commonly used when pedophilia or other illegal activity appears in conversation. The term was born as frequent threats of police and FBI intervention occurred during a string of forum raids in the summer of 2005. Sites in this meme generally make use of Moby's rendition of the theme song to Mission: Impossible.

E

eabod
Acronym (pronounced e-a-bod) for eat a bowl of dick. A moderately offensive phrase, usually used in response to an equally offensive insult.

F

FTW
Acronym, For the Win!, also Fuck the World. "For the Win" is used in praise of the choice of a particular image/concept/sound in a site, an epic forum maneuver, or some equally impressive action or creation. The opposite is FTL, which stands For the Loss or For the Lose.

G

GTFO
Acronym, get the fuck out. Veteran forum members often use this phrase to quickly dismiss a new user upon the latter's first post.

L

Lawl
Saying the abbrivation LOL as if it's an actual word. Made popular on YTMND by Boomaga's reading of Neal Bauman's cease-and-desist letter to Max.
LOUD NOISES
Things you make when you really want attention. I mean, really, really want attention. Inspired by the movie Anchorman.

P

photochop'd
A term for pictures that have allegedly been altered with Adobe Photoshop or another image manipulation tool.

R

RAGED
Often written in large capital letters and bold red font, occasionally with several extra A's and unneccessary punctuation (e.g., RAAAAAAAAAAGED!!), RAGED describes a person who has lost their cool in a conversation on the internet. The forum or IRC user who succeeds in angering or "raging" another while consistently maintaining their own composure is usually seen as the dominant party in the conversation. The origin of this is probably from Final Fantasy VIII, in which one of Seifer's 2 goons says very little throughout the game. She is most remembered by saying "RAGED" and kicking another character in the shin.
Red-x
Common internet reference to the browser standard replacement image for missing or broken links to images on web pages. A small characteristic X is displayed in red inside of an inset placeholder box, with an equally characteristic default size. Recognizable by anyone who has ever used a popular web browser for a long enough period of time, the red-x is occasionally used for comedic value in images, on forums, and so on.
