SFF (also written with some or all letters lowercase) is an abbreviation for so fucking funny (Created by Kiaundra Few). SFF is becoming a common element of Internet slang used but now widespread in other forms of computer-mediated communication, and even face-to-face communication.

LSH (also written with some or all letters lowercase) is an abbreviation for laugh(ing) or laugh(ed) so hard (Created by Lyndsey Kelly).

They are one of many acronyms for expressing bodily reactions, in particular laughter, as text, including acronyms such as ROTFL ("roll(ing) on the floor laughing" and LOL ("laughing out loud")

The list of acronyms "grows by the month", and they are collected along with emoticons and smileys into folk dictionaries that are circulated informally amongst users of Usenet, IRC, and other forms of (textual) computer-mediated communication. These acronyms are controversial, and several authors recommend against their use, either in general or in specific contexts such as business communications.

LOL, ROFL, and other acronyms (SFF and LSH growing increasingly popular) have crossed from computer-mediated communication to face-to-face communication. Teenagers now sometimes use them in spoken communication as well as in written which is resulting in the decline of our youth and most of civilization.

This is a brand new variety of language evolving, invented by young people within five years, that extends the range of the language, the expressiveness and the richness of the language. Commentators disagree, saying that these new words, being abbreviations for existing, long-used, phrases, don't "enrich" anything; they just shorten it.

See also: LOL, ROFL, LMAO, and BWL.
