Sorry, Shadoen and Waldoze, but the epic fail is (unsurprisingly) yours:

www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=KTXBI

www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=KTXBI!

Please compare with my (correct) usage:

www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=KTHXBI

Morons.

[Edit: While I've corrected for your esthetic pleasure, my cut-paste job is not wrong so much as it is poorly formatted; much like your own text, lacking as it does capitalization and punctuation of a contraction. Their error actually resulted from a false assertion of fact. So piss off, wanker.]

*Yawn
Afaik, said contraction has got no clear spelling nor usage in proper grammar, seeing as it's a jargon and has many variations like KTXBI or KTHBAI. Have I lost you so far? Ok, moving on.

Its humor, like in all those LOLcats phrases, lies on its fucked up grammar and mispellings. Ex: I can has cheezburger, buckit, i hurd u liek mudkips, etc.

So yes, I was wrong in trying to correct you and in doing so, i failed. However, you failed harder trying to demonstrate the correct usage for such a contraction. Specially by linking to web sites where grammar and spelling are not a concern. Btw, the issue in question here is not the usage but the spelling.

Now, as much as I would love to keep arguing about jargon and its dozens of different variations, it's a waste of our precious time. Ba bye.

lol Allow me to translae Shadoen's last post into English:

"Wow, I tried to call you out, and wound up claiming something that 99% of usage (actual figure totally made up) contradicts. I will now pretend that there's no right or wrong answer, ignoring the fact that my earlier post indicates I thought there was, and therefore whatever you said is a silly waste of time. I will creep off to seek a funky towel with which to wipe this egg from mine visage."

The humor or usage of KTHXBI was clearly never at issue, nor did my response address those aspects: how it was spelled was your point of contention, and I limited my reply to it. Try googling "ktxbi" and you will be asked if you meant "kthxbi"; likewise, the number of hits for each shows a massive disparity in the preferred spelling. I'm not saying my usage was the only one ever practiced, merely that [1] it is the predominate one across these here interwebs, and that [2] you are an idiot for "correcting" me.

KTHXBI!

Lol. Allow me to retort:

"I will now pretend that there's no right or wrong answer, ignoring the fact that my earlier post indicates I thought there was."
I believe I made it clear that I was wrong on the third paragraph of my previous response:
"So yes, I was wrong in trying to correct you and in doing so, I failed"

There are other variations, but if you wanna talk about the most predominant, that would be KTHXBAI. Now I'll rephrase what I said earlier: It IS a waste of time to argue with a narcissistic condescending smug suffering from a never-ending period.
KTXBI!

You can drag me into this Lecter, but your original post (pre-edit) was incorrect. You wrote "KTXHBI". Obviously, I should've quoted you so you couldn't stand on your high-horse.

This was the fail of which I referred. Wank yourself, Wanker!

Nobody is a winner on the internet. Everyone loses when they argue like this, everyone looks stupid. Why don't we just stop this now before it gets worse?

I agree! {LOCKED}

We had a nice long run of civil discussions until recently. Hmm.
