An obsolete variant of the letter s "ſ" that is often confused with an f (it also resembles ∫, a calculus symbol); It fell out of favour in the early 19th-Century for this very reason, as printers found that it was more practical to use a variant of s that would not be confused with f.
The long s still survives in German as the letter ß, which is a ligature of the letters ſ and s combined into ſs (ß). It can also be found in the Jägermeiſter (Jägermeister) logo.

"Hey, why does this word say 'ſuſpicious' in this old book? Shouldn't that be an s; I don't remember suspicious being spelt with f."
"That's just one of the ways that they wrote s back then; it's called the Long S."

she's the "most" best friend you can ever imagine to have. she has the all the qualities to be the epitome of humanity. she's incredibly funny, smart and dare I say gorgeous. she's probably the toughest and strongest person you know. she always does what she thinks is right. she loves reading books and listening to our lord and saviour taylor swift. but in the end you're too afraid to admit that you lover her adorable doggo more than her.

A word commonly typed in urban dictionary when subject is bored. Boredom stems from the lack of unicorns and fruity pebbles in ones life. I pity you. If you would like to find a unicorn plant a skittle into the ground and a unicorn will be born from the ensuing rainbow in approximately 7 days. Fruity pebbles are not very hard to find, just find a dinosaur and follow it too its cave of fruity pebbles. I hope this has cured your boredom.

It can also mean to Tiger Suit. Tiger Suiting is when you wear a huge gutted stuff animal, and run around doing wacky thangs. Sometimes when Tiger Suiting, you might ask married grocery store clerks out on dates, and/or scare young children.
