    What is HTH?

    I won an ebay auction and the person said:

    HTH and thanks!

    Any clue what this means?

    Happy Thankgiving?
    Our lives are not determined by what happens to us but by how we react to what happens, not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life. A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a catalyst, a spark that creates extraordinary results.

    like BI said, "hope this helps."

    it's an ambiguous term that can either be a sincere expression of "i hope my information was helpful," or a snide, sarcastic insult (example: let's say BI posts a question about changing a battery in a casio watch. i post a reply that says "people who wear casio watches are pigf***ers. HTH.")

    it sounds like in this case the person was just being nice.

    i guess it depends on what you are bidding on.

    Hold the horseradish?

    Handle the ham?

    Hope this hurts?

    It means "How the hell?" As in, "How the hell did YOU win my auction?"
