What does tbh mean? What does it stand for? I have heard this abbreviation once in a while on Social Platforms like Twitter and Facebook, however I just ignored it, as I am not really into all those fancy word plays and 'slick' abbreviations. However, as this tbh stuff is used pretty frequently, I had to look the meaning up and all it really stands for is ' to be honest ' . 

Do you use 'tbh' yourself and if you do, in what kind of situations would you use it? This kind of 'slang' is more for younger people, isn't it?

"TBH" means "to be honest".

Like:
TBH, I don't like your art. = To be honest, I don't like your art.

I don't use "tbh" myself, but I've been on enough chats to know what it means.

Other popular slangs are:
OMG = oh my God.
LOL = laughing out loud.
LMAO = laughing my arse off.
LMFAO = laughing my fucking arse off.
ROFL = rolling on the floor of laughing.
git gud = ???
ur = your/you're.
STFU = shut the fuck up.
GTFO = get the fuck out.
Among others.

Yes, I know most of them. One of my favorites is RTFM, which stands for Read the Fucking Manual :=)
