RTFB

What does RTFB stand for?

Read the flippin’ book

When someone uses the slang term ‘RTFB’, they’re basically telling you to “read the flippin’ book”. This acronym usually pops up in conversations about guide books, novels, and even TV shows or movies that are based on books.

So, let’s say your buddy quizzes you about what happened to Katniss Everdeen in the Hunger Games series. Instead of spoiling it for them, you can just tell them to RTFB. But remember, don’t actually suggest someone to read the Hunger Games series, because, well, you know, they might not appreciate the emotional rollercoaster.

Example for using ‘RTFB’ in a conversation

Hey, have you read the new Harry Potter book?

No, not yet. Is it good?

RTFB! It’s amazing! You won’t be able to put it down.

Haha, alright! I’ll definitely check it out. Thanks for the recommendation!
