“BFR,” shorthand for “Be For Real,” is a common slang word in today’s social media culture. This expression is invoked when someone is skeptical, doubtful, or uncertain about the authenticity of information they’ve encountered. It creates a sense of disbelief, urging others to be genuine or transparent in their communication.
Example
Person 1: Did you hear the news? All malls are going to be shut down on Saturday!
Person 2: “BFR, did that really happen, or are you joking?”
