Definition

Someone who thinks their opinion isn't worth much might preface it with AFWIW (anyway, for what it's worth). You're most likely to receive this acronym in messages sent by friends, family members, and co-workers, who want to share their opinion but think it won't bring you much comfort.

lolx

An experimental evolution of "LOL" where someone decided the classic acronym needed an X-factor, literally.
