My son told me that DTF means "Doing the Face Book", but I sometimes see it being used in other sites that I like to visit that aren't social media sites. Does the Face Book really carry that much weight on the Internet? What does "Doing the Face Book" really mean exactly?

Pretty sure you’re shitposting, but for any parents who don’t know, it means “down to fuck.”

Well don't know if he is shitposting but for the longest time I thought Netflix and chill was just inviting someone over and watch a movie. Until the other day someone told me that the expectation is to fuck.

See I would totally be down to just hang and watch a movie with a friend, then GTFO.

I think Netflix is becoming an increasingly hard-sale on it's own these days.

Very true. It's upsetting on Netflix or prime to search for a movie and it autocompletes but then they just show you "I know you really want to see X, but how about Y instead"?

come and look at my etchings was a euphemism well after etchings stopped being fashionable, it'll be the same with netflix and chill.

As an ace individual, yeah. Let's watch a movie, maybe cuddle close. Cuddling is great. But don't get all slobbery and block my view of Deadpool

It means "down to fuck", it means your open to sexual activity. Doing the Facebook is a lie hea telling you to avoid the awkward situation

I work in accounting and had a boss (younger than me) who abbreviated Due to/from as DTF and I never figured out if he was trolling us or just had never come across it. If he was trolling he never once broke. I still talk to him but can't bring myself to ask.

If they have a sense of humor that would laugh at this concept. They fucking know.
