Probably one of the most useless and pointless TLA I've come across so far. TIHI.

  It derives from an expression deep in the history of Usenet or e-mail (hyphenated), when hapless newbies (two syllables) were told by harried sysops to RTFM, read the f* manual.

    And while it is being used now to simply reference the article, RTFA was originally used in the same way as RTFM. A way of expressing frustration to a commenter who should have read the fucking article first.

      Indeed. I usually go with “OP” in non-frustrated contexts, myself.
