    For The Win.

    An enthusiastic emphasis to the end of a comment, message, or post. Sometimes genuine, but often sarcastic.

              Originated as a biker term used in two contexts:

              1. Forever Two Wheels. A validation of biker culture, values, and of course, bikes.

              2. Fuck The World. A rejection of non-biker/traditional values/laws of any kind.

              According to people who should know, the first was the true origin of the term.
