What is the FAFO graph?

FAFO stands for “fuck around and find out”. The FAFO chart is the meme version of that warning: Fuck Around on the x-axis, Find Out on the y-axis, and a curve that stays flat for a while, then goes straight up. Fool around a little and nothing happens. Keep going and the consequences grow exponentially.

This is the interactive version. Drag the blue arrow to stretch the Fuck Around axis and watch Find Out climb from a raised eyebrow to the evening news. Every 10 minutes the graph switches to one of 50 themed sets, from the office to the zombie apocalypse. Or pick one yourself below.
