To ask what does CF mean?

I think I've figured out most abbreviations on MN but I just can't imagine what cf might stand for even though I understand how it's used. The only thing I can think of is "cunt fucker" but it's not that is it?? Hmm

Also, what is ama?

It took me ages to figure out what is pita but it finally clicked. Easter Smile

Does anyone else have any abbreviations they don't understand?

(Apologies if this information is available somewhere)

I keep seeing Hit The Hay with HTH but it never made sense to tell someone to go to bed after offering them some advice

Hope That Helps

RTFT threw me for a while but eventually I worked it out, "read the fucking thread".

I thought it was "Read The Full Thread" but I prefer yours.

Too Long, Didn't Read. Meaning, the original text was too long, so here's a summary.

This is very embarrassing, but what the hell. Years and years ago, when this was all very new, I thought one person had a child called DD and I remember thinking a) what a stupid name and b) this person has too much time on their hands.

There was a thread the other day with several references to 'lo', which I couldn't work out and still haven't. I could see it was referring to a baby or a child but for the life of me I can't figure out what it stands for?

Here's Mumsnet's list of acronyms. I don't know if it ever gets updated though 😀

Little One (lo) always makes me think of NetMums. Ditto TIA and Baby Dust 🤮

CF is definitely Cunty Fucker in my head even though I know it is meant to be Cheeky. But then this board usually makes me think Cunt about every 15 seconds so that’s probably why.

I always thought CF meant close friend and I was like why's everyone being so mean about their close friend GrinBlush

MrsRobinsonsHandprints · 29/11/2022 15:05

Cunty fucker when I read it. Much better than cheeky

Brilliant!
You must have thought MN was the worst place in the world

@LadyOfTheCanyon your comment about baby dust maybe being spunk made me think of my ex. His surname was Hay and he called it hayonnaise 🤢🤮

No. It's used to give someone good luck when they're trying to conceive.
