- the acronym for Adult Swim, which is a tv channel that used to appear late after Cartoon Network. It usually was for tv shows with an older target audience. An example of a show on as is Family Guy.

Tiktok has a trend now to create creative ways to show the acronym, just like how as did little commercial breaks. The commercial breaks usually had an abstract quote with a funny video attached.
“Yo what tv channel you watching?“
“as.“

"There's people who wash their hair everyday, but some only once a week, but who cares ? as"
