gafia 

Acronym standing for Getting Away From It All, used in science fiction fandom and coined in 1940 by Dick Wilson. When it was first coined, it meant a fan who was getting away from mundane persuits to engage in fan activities, but in a very short period it flip-flopped in meaning and was thereafter used to mean leaving fan activities behind to pursue real-world endeavors. See also: "gafiate".

I was gafia while attending college.

gafiate 

Verb form of the acronym GAFIA, which in sf fan use stands for "Getting Away From It All."

The shorter term "gafia" was coined by sf fan Dick Wilson and used as early as 1940 when there was a Loyal and Benevolent Order of Gafia. Originally intended to mean fans "getting away" from mundane activities to participate in fandom, it quickly flip-flopped and became the reverse -- fans who gave up fandom for more real world pursuits.

gafilta 

In motorcycling speak, and coined by Moto content creator @adhd_Sanatani, a Gafilta is a particularly difficult or daring manoeuvre (or sequence of manoeuvres) by which a rider navigates through heavy slow or stationary traffic whilst maintaining full control of their motorcycle.

N.b. If the rider lifts their feet off during the manoeuvre for any reason (touching the floor for balance, for example), this would not be considered a Gafilta, rather just standard filtering.

“I can’t wait for this week’s episode of Gafilta Friday”

“That was some Grade A Gafiltaing”

GAFing 

GAFing is the direct opposite of DGAF or DGAFing. If you are familiar with the SoCal culture, DGAF stands for "Don't Give A Fuck", and therefore GAFing means "Giving A Fuck". The DGAF culture tries to act nonchalant in their attitude towards the world. They act like they will do anything, and won't give a fuck if they get caught or cause others harm or desperation. It's a lifestyle that is completely contradicted by those who "GAF". The people who "GAF" are those who give a fuck about the world, and their life. These people are not reckless. They stop at stop signs. They don't do drugs or shoot people. They recycle. "GAFing" goes against everything that SoCal culture is, and is completely and utterly unacceptable everywhere from Los Angeles and south of there. People who "GAF" are most likely elderly people, middle-aged adults with children, and teenagers who hit puberty late, go to church, and are too cautious for their own good.

"God, my brother is GAFing again. He won't come with me and my friends to rob that liquor store, rape those bitches, or go smashing pumpkins because it's Halloween. And the worst part is, he just RECYCLED his Mountain Dew bottle. He's never gonna fit in here in SoCal."
