TIO

What does TIO mean in messages?

Turn it off

If someone sends you "TIO" in a message, they want you to stop doing whatever you are doing. This command may pertain to people watching TV or a movie, playing a video game, using a smartphone, etc.

For example, you might complain about how the scary movie you are watching gives you nightmares, and your friend replies with, "TIO! It's not worth it!" Or you might message your sibling, "Sorry it took me a while to reply. My phone was off cuz my teacher made me TIO. :("

While people typically use TIO to tell others to turn off a device, video, etc., some may use it to tell people to stop something about their personality. For example, if your friend is being real extra, you might say, "u r outta pocket. time 2 tio."
