It's been so long I'm afraid to ask... But what does TFA mean?

I thought it might mean the The Fucking Article... As in "Did you read TFA? You moron." But that seems out of place for someone who wrote their edit to be "Improved my prose."

Just as RTFM == Read The [Fine|Fucking] Manual, the 'F' in TFA can mean either one.

I suppose that the quality of the article might impact how you think about it, but personally it's 'The Fine Article' to me. That can be ironic, but isn't necessarily.

As with most things, whatever works for you is just fine.
