It’s a simple acronym with many different ways to interpret it. Some people say it’s “Chuckling to myself”, but others know it as Chicken Tikka Masala, a type of South Indian/ Sri-lankan food.

This person is the best gamer you will meet. A CTM will also be good-looking looking and if you get into a relationship with someone who goes by CTM, you won't need another person in your life.
Person 1: look at CTM!
Person 2: he is the best gamer, and is SO HOT!
CTM's gf: he is the best person I've ever met

Acronym meaning "Chuckling To Myself". Can be used in internet environments to describe the sensation of quietly laughing to a particularly amusing stimulus. While "lol" (acronym of Laughing Out Loud) is used as a filler or placeholder, and often does not equate to joy and laughter, "ctm" is used when you wish to express that odd sensation when you indeed chuckling (or any variation including snorting, giggling, or full out laughing) to yourself.
