The round was developed by Smith & Wesson in 1990 by shortening the casing of the very powerful 10mm Auto. Even though it's only been around for nearly two decades, it has already achieved as much popularity in the US as the 9mm and .45 Auto, which have both been around for over a century.

Basically the round was created to solve a problem that never existed. It was developed to bridge a supposed "gap" between the 9mm and .45 Auto even though both rounds have substantial power as it is. The round appeals to a certain number of semi-auto enthusiasts who are dumb enough to believe that the 9mm is a pee-shooter, yet are too intimidated by the .45 Auto, which only has slightly more recoil. Still, it is a great round for self-defense.
Know-it-all: Don't buy a 9mm for self-defense, I've heard stories of 9mm bouncing off windshields and not being able to take down raging 6' 6" hoodlums on crack. Get a .40.

Me: And can you give me an example of a .40 S&W getting the job done?

Know-it-all: Ummm...no. But 9mm is still wimpy because I said so.

Used as a short way of saying WTF which stand for the 'w' words + the fuck: who, when, why and where. Used mostly when something is a big WTF since it has a broader spectrum of definition.

W's also applies to other variations of WTF like WTBF, WTCF, etc.
Guy #1: Dude! W's with this stupid crowd
Guy #2: I know man, they suck balls!

The real reason why we don't have White Entertainment Television (WET). It spells WET.
