Acronym for “Too Fucked Up To Live”.
A literary device where a character in a mentor, guardian, or other caretaker role must kill the person/creature they care for, either to put them out of their misery or in order to prevent further pain or harm.
This may be a consequence of that person’s actions (Of Mice and Men; Better Call Saul, S4E10) or due to the fucked up nature of the situation they find themselves in (Old Yeller; Million Dollar Baby).

Get the trutle mug.Trutle, a name which describes the most prestigious and respected family/group/person. Someone who is great in many fields, including romantic interests with the ladies. (he-yuck). Trutle is great for naming children and is totally not a misspelling of the word Turtle. Nope totally an original name. Good job.
