What does this mean?
Posted alone under a comment to signal total agreement — the comment above said it, no point repeating. Often dressed up as 'THIS.', 'so much this', or '^^^this'. So overused it's mostly mocked now.
"— 'Pineapple on pizza is a war crime.' — 'This.'"
Origin
Early-2010s forum and Reddit shorthand. Replaced longer 'QFT' (quoted for truth) and '^this' patterns.
