True. Johnny Thunders Rocks and L.A.M.F. is one of his great records. However, L.A.M.F. is not punk graffiti but gang graffiti. In New York City (johnny's home) the gang members would stray into other gangs territories where they would tag D.T.K. meaning "Down to Kill", a challenge to the gang who's turf it was. L.A.M.F. or "Like a Mutherfucker" would be added to accentuate or validate the existing tag.

LAMF was an obscene acronym used in the 1960s and onward by teenagers and other youth, sometimes to describe their gangs, though not necessarily the more violent and highly-organized gangs now existing.

The acronym might be combined with their community or other name, as Kings LAMF and was often written with marker pen inside subway cars in New York City.

The term stood for "Like A Mother Fucker" and was also used as the title, in that context, albums by Folk-Rock Duo Bunky and Jake in 1969, L.A.M.F. and Johnny Thunders and the Heartbreakers in 1977, L.A.M.F.

In the present, some bands and individuals use the term LAMF to evoke connotations of said Johnny Thunders and the Heartbreakers album and the musical milieu that gave birth to it.

LAMF is also the name of the Burden Brothers Street Team.

Vans Skate Footwear has also released Jim Greco's pro model shoe, called the LAMF. Van's has also come out with the LAMF 2's.

Julian Cope and collaborators released an album by LAMF called Ambient Metal in 2001.

Japanese professional wrestler Yoshiaki Yago has the letters "LAMF" emblazoned on the back of his trunks.

Shannon Leto, of the band 30 Seconds to Mars, can often be seen wearing a shirt with the acronym LAMF written across the front in Pink lettering.

L.A.M.F. 

The abbreviation L.A.M.F. stands for "Like A MotherFucker" and it comes from old school (1970s) New York gang graffiti.
Some people pretend that the L stands for words like: Lucky or Lazy, but that's just their opinion and not an actual fact.

endwarfins

The rush of neurotransmitters and neuropeptides triggered specifically by watching the Seven Dwarfs march home singing "Heigh-Ho" — that particular high of pickaxes, whistling while you work, and communal domestic bliss in a cottage built for men half your height.
I only meant to watch the Heigh-Ho scene for the endwarfins, and then it was two hours later and I'd watched the whole movie.

Endwarfins aren't just a Snow White thing — I get the same hit off the Lollipop Guild in Oz.
