When I ws a young punk rocker, it meant F*@% The World, but it doesn't seem like it means the same thing anymore. I'm an old man trying to catch up on the lingo!

"For the win" maybe? Punk rock doesnt care your age. Some of the coolest punkers Ive ever met were old guys.

Thats what it means? I always thought it was someone saying "Found Turkey Weiners" or maybe.. "For Tiny Wimps" or "Fun Teasing Wenches"

Who came up with For the win?
