AFK (different from the other common use, Away From Keyboard) stands for Armadillos are Fucking my Keyboard. It is commonly used as an exclamation of excitement, anger, sadness, or any other strong emotion. The term was coined in the wake of the 2000s by a group of small time hackers and petty criminals from the suburbs of Detroit, the Killsmiths. They would leave the abbreviation or fill phrase on the homescreen of a website after committing a cyber attack against it. The A and K are often switched out for a number of other terms, including but not limited to:
Angels, Anti-Gravity Clocks, Amish settlers, Anguished sailors, Killsmith, Krispy Kreme, Kremlin, Keytar, or others.
