This song... and any real fall out boy fan who didn't jump on the bandwagon when from under the cork tree made it big would know this... Is about Chris Gutierrez an old childhood friend of Pete Wentz. Pete had "relations" with Chris' girlfriend and when he found out he blasted pete on his livejournal saying things like who does he think he is (the reason for the title don't you know who I think I am?). one nite stand refers to his sex with chris's girlfriend and put your fingers back to the keys is pete telling him that if he can't get over it or do better than some petty insults on an online blog he needs to put his fingers back to the (keyboard) keys and keep on typing until his heart is content.

I think the reason they took the vowels out was a reference to Brand New's "Th Dvl nd Gd r rgng nsd m"?

Well, Pete said "Who here's ever checked their bf/gs's cell phone, because they don't trust who they're talking to?" Then people screamed or whatever, and said, " this one's for you"
Which would make sense with the whole text message thing with Thnx fr th mmrs

I think this song is about a guy, who had a one night stand with someone but later on has moral issues with it and is fighting a moral battle about why he feel it's wrong. And obviously it all happened in a hotel with someone he randomly met there. The only part I don't get is " he still tastes like you only sweeter" but maybe that's just FOB being weird.

This song is definitely a confessional about an affair. The singer is talking to his girlfriend about how much he likes guys more than her. Just because "He tastes like you only sweeter" is in quotes doesn't mean that it's not a reference to the exact words he was telling her at the time. Basically, he's gone gay and now likes the taste from giving his boy toy a rim job more than going down on a woman.

The song is about how he can't handle being in a comitted relationship and he's just in it for the "good times." the girl can pray for it to mean more, but to him it wont.
He means well and doesn't want to hurt anyone, but he just wants the sex. when someone asks who he thinks he is, they should know that they're getting themselves into a "one night stand" he thanks her for the memories and wants to move on, but she's bitter and says "he tastes like you but sweeter". He tries to get past all the girls he's done, but its hard and the "crystal balls cloudy except for when you look into the past one night stand."
He knows his reputation for just trying to get more girls, but he doesn't care and continues to "get out of my mind and get you out of those clothes" and that getting girls is easy when your a rock star.

I totally thought this was about a gay guy too when I first listened to it!
In fact my friend asked me what it was, she couldn't hear me, I shouted "hes gay", then I was kicked off the bus

Ok, so I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but in the music video for Thnks Fr Th Mmrs, Pete is shown sending a text message... maybe suggesting that he is sending a girl [?]thnks fr th mmrs.
i don't know, just my thoughts =)

Heh the lack vowels in the tittle...hmmm could it be......metaphorical ...like vows......i think so...or have we established that already

Songwriters need to take care in what lyrics they choose, it can make a song take on a whole new meaning, "How did I taste" is the kind of insult you throw at someone who has "relations" with someone just after you. Or visa-versa if you are the unlucky one(seconds). Sounds to me like the singer was late to the party and got a bad taste in his mouth. Good song otherwise.

Its called Thnks Fr Th Mmrs because its in text speak, and as a joke to their record company, who asked them to shorten the names of their songs, I mean A Little Less Sixteen Candles A Little More Touch Me is a pretty long song name, and they have others equally as long
