Usage notes

This term and its female equivalent 絲打／丝打 (si1 daa2) are chiefly used on the discussion boards HKGolden and LIHKG, of which the latter was split from the former. The usage of this term outside these two websites was originally rare, but was later popularized due to their heavy influences on the Hong Kong Internet culture.
