HTFAISK is a slang acronym people typically use when they want to emphasize that they have no idea about something. People may use it aggressively (when they intend the "F" to stand for "F***") or in a lighthearted, family-friendly tone (where the "F" stands for "Flip"). You'll have to rely on context to decipher between the two.
The "HTFAISK" acronym gained popularity in the late 2010s and early 2020s, primarily among younger audiences who sought to express frustration or confusion in a humorous, exaggerated manner. For example, you may encounter the acronym in online chats, gaming lobbies, texting circles, group chats, Discord servers, or in comment sections when someone is caught off guard by a random question or situation.
