VIF

et-centric abbreviation for the popular exclamation "Virtual Friend!" (generally used in conversations to describe friends people you primarily have an online relationship with). Most commonly used by teenagers who find it depressingly hard to type out an entire word. Reinforces assumptions that humans increasingly interact through online media and platforms.

Typical 4chan’er: Dude, you should’ve heard what parkbench said yesterday!!
Real life friend: who the fuck is Parkbench?
Typical 4chan’er: Oh shit, you don’t know him.. He’s one of my VIF’s..
Real Life Friend: Jesus Christ, you need to go out more..
