Fox Deciphers Secret Teen Sexting Code. “Banana” Means “Penis”!

"Banana," slang for "Penis"? What uncrackable code will the kids think up next?
Via Pukeimmediately: MyFoxAtlanta has published a valuable cheat-sheat for parents wondering what all the acronyms in their child's texts really mean. Is your tween a Fond of Leather ("FOL") Marijuana-smoking ("420") Nude Club-attending ("1174") Penis ("Banana"))? Are you reading your kid's texts right over her shoulder ("POS") as we speak?
Just don't let your kids know you know, or they'll change the code! What crazy new abbreviation for "I Am Easy, Are You?" ("IMEZRU") will they think up next?
The full list of "Text Acronyms Parents Should Know" is after the jump (number 15 mysteriously not present—possibly just too real).

jesus I need to get my internet pimp game up as I don't know any of these.
5:03 pm
i love how they say these are the "top acronyms commonly used on the internet and in text messages." by who?? prostitutes?? this list makes all teenagers look like sluts. these are most definitely not the most commonly used acronyms.
4:00 pm
LOL. Lol.
That's "Laughing Out Loud," or maybe "Likes Old Ladies" in Fox Fearmonger Txtspeak.
Ridiculous.
What Fox intern had to spend however many hours scrolling thru adult s&m chatrooms to cull this load of crap?
2:52 pm
I love how "FB" apparently means fuck buddy.
I always used it as an abbreviation for Facebook.
10:34 pm
This is actually kind of ridiculous.
I've never heard of mostly all of these.
These are the most obscure, out of the ordinary abreviations possible.
8:19 am
who would send this in a text anyway - especially if the parents would read over it?
8:03 pm
WOW.
This is a pretty ridiculous list.
I've heard of maybe two of these and I'm texting 24/7.
I suppose these make sense save for the numeric ones at the top but who really uses them.
I love how the media is trying to make teenagers out to be constantly horny sneaky disobedient monsters.
Here's a commonly used acronym for you:
WTF or WHAT THE F***?
11:48 pm
BS
10:07 pm
Seriously? Nobody uses this crap.
10:48 pm
Real quick, 1337, Elite, has nothing to do with sex. It's just gamer talk. Check your facts
10:40 pm
Ok I haven't even heard of pretty much all of these. WTF is wrong with whoever came up with these? They must be using all of these if they know them so well. Teens aren't as bad as media makes them out to be.
12:03 am
FTP!!
9:06 pm
Im 14 none of my friends or anyone on anything i go on have ever use these what loser spent all that time finding these?
4:50 pm
Umm wtf who came up with this shiz like seriously?!?! Its ridiculous!!! I text non stop & I do not use any of these!!! If I wanna say any of that imma just spell it out!!! Duh smh!!!!
3:26 am
