Seeing that on the Memorial Day Weekend Special sign I thought WTH and of course I mean heck. So I Googled it and it's texting slang for out of here. I don't usually text in slang so I wasn't familiar.

 

How to out of here? IAC (I am confused)

@Greeneyedlady21 - The Q is currently running several "How to..." campaigns, such as "How to Summer." The campaigns often use accompanying short bits/phrases to emphasize how great things are, like "How to MMM" for a tasty recipe or food product for sale. In this case, the "OOH" is literally the sound you make when you get excited about something—so in theory, the "How to" part is how to impress people so they'll make that noise.

 

I know, it's all ridiculous.

@loriqvcThanks for the explanation, I don't watch enough to know about that campaign. I thought it was ooh as in the sound, but then I thought it can't be that because that's just too silly. Wrong.😊

 

I think I know how to Summer but maybe I don't 😕

I must admit I am completely confused by the OP's post. But then, I am not up on all the texting lingo.
