I asked this morning (iirc) if y'all wanted a guide on what terms meant and how to use them. I got some positive responses, only an hour later, I watched a guy ask what JFL meant, so I decided this was good to make.
JFL is used to express laughter, used properly sometimes; however, it is also used as laughing AT something or somebody. Context matters.
JBW - Just be white
JBW or the jbwpill is an acronym used to show that being white (or looking white) is the most important factor in dating or general life, meaning you need to be white to ascend. Also used as a racist term to diminish blacks and ethnics in looksmaxxing.
Mog
Mog (or mogging) is usually an action done when somebody is better looking than another person or group of people, usually based on physical appearance. There is also "sub-mogs", like iqmogging, where you're more intelligent.
Mew
Mew (or mewing) is a method where you push your tongue to the roof of your mouth for extended periods of time. This method gives your jaw a more defined look, raising the skin and fat under your chin and near your hyoid, popularised in 2023 on TikTok, usually the open doors for looksmaxxing.
LDAR - Lay Down and Rot
LDAR is the act of extricating from society and forgoing productive exercises; most times it's used sarcastically or on a lesser meaning, however, people have truly "followed LDAR" and just given up.

Of course, this isn't an entire list; there are hundreds, if not thousands, of terms, some of which I may not even know. This is just the most common terms that I've seen and used on forums, if you want to learn more or even have a suggestion to add to the guide, you may comment.
Stop being an idiot if you're new to the forum, and follow this list. Using terms incorrectly will make you look poor and set you off on a bad record for the forum.
