    Ok, so I really like searching all the beer trading forums just for fun most of the time. I guess I'm just not good with all the acronyms on this site. Some of them I get, but most I don't. So heres my question.....

    What does IT Forward stand for?
    What does LiF stand for?
    What does BIF stand for?

    I'm sure there are many more that I don't get. Call me old, call me stupid, it don't matter. I'm just trying to figure things out.

    Thanks.

    IT Forward is just what it sounds like - it just means you're sending something (usually beer), generally in the spirit of generosity.

    LIF and BIF are variations of this - "Lottery it Forward", "Beer it Forward".

    *grammar* queens, good sir. (And "ur" would've been better if you've recently been lobotomized, or communicate solely in Twitter-speak, which essentially amounts to the same damn thing.)

    Or if you're a 13 year-old girl, which would cause me to wonder why you're on a beer forum.

    To be fair, a 13-year old prepubescent boy would work for this as well.

    Besides, it's not nearly as sexist as:

    "Or if you're a 13 year-old girl, which would cause me to wonder why you're not in the kitchen."
