2023: 11-year-old girl FAFOs while misusing 911 service

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

This video was just posted yesterday, and is going viral. TL : DW - an 11-year-old girl, about whom I am guessing had never been in trouble before, prank-called 911, stating that she had witnessed a kidnapping. None of this is true, and she’s taken to juvie in handcuffs.

I hope this is the worst thing she ever does, and I just know her parents were thinking that something like this was not covered in the instruction manual. This video does contain profanity, most of it used by her father, for which I can’t blame him.

FAFOs?

:thinking:

“Fuck Around, Find Out.”

And you know what they say about “Nothing on the Internet ever goes away!” She’d be 12 or 13 now.

TIL what FAFO means.

How good is your Internet connection deep in some cave somewhere?

Yeah, I know, I coulda looked it up, but the answer was just a couple posts down. I know, I am lazy that way.

It isn’t that you could have looked it up, it is that you haven’t already encountered it 50,000 times. It is an extremely wide-spread, trendy initialism. It is so wide spread that even a befuddled painfully unhip elderly man uses it.

Forgive me for not spending enough time online to know, as I am an unhip, untrendy old Duder who does not use social media.

Yeah - but that is a befuddled unhip old man who DOES spend A LOT of time on Twitter/X.

I had never encountered that acronym/abbreviation before. I’d suggest familiarity might be relative to one’s social media activity.

This is not the pit. Please don’t be a jerk.

And let’s drop the hijack about “who knows what FAFO means”, please.
