This term is used to describe the feeling that comes the
day after a long night of partying when you are often forced to
ask yourself “what the
fuck?”. Whether you wake up in
bed with someone that you shouldn’t have or you just remember making an ass out of yourself the night before you are experiencing the wtf factor. Often this is most
awkward when you first wake up and are forced to face those who witnessed your stupidity, but the wtf factor refers to the entire day following the party because it is difficult to get the strong wtf feeling out of your head even after you’ve
gone home. The wtf factor is inevitable and if the party is large and the alcohol is plentiful, the most you can
hope for is to keep the wtf factor to a minimum. Sadly, according to Olson’s Law of Large Parties, the larger the party, the more serious the wtf factor.
