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

What does old mean to you? Maybe you're just not terminally online ๐Ÿ˜…

.... 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
