ITT people baww at the mere mention of race and gender, and proceed to behave as if the problem is other people being too sensitive about race and gender.

I'm very sorry, but what is ITT and baww?

[–] mysteryname101 27 points 3 months ago (2 children)

ITT. In this thread.

Bawww in this context means “cry”

Thanks for the clarification. This is how I find out that I'm old.

Upvoting in solidarity.

What does old mean to you? Maybe you're just not terminally online 😅

.... ITT has been used since early 00s AFAIK (2003 urban dictionary https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=ITT). It's possible that it was used before that I just couldn't find any "proof" and can't remember it personally.

The bawwww I just got contextually. Plus sounded out it kinda sounds like someone bawling their eyes out. QQ

Same. I always immediately think of the Fela Kuti track!

I thought ITT was in reference to that technical community college I used to see ads for on tv
