What Does "304" Mean on TikTok? Social Media "Accountants" Already Know

Apr. 1 2022, Published 1:00 p.m. ET

Social media users on TikTok have been confused about why some people say or hashtag the number 304 on their videos. TikTok is an app for all ages, which means that talking about inappropriate subject matters can lead to your account getting disabled or deleted.

Since users have to be very careful about what they talk about and post, they’ve come up with safe words, codes, and terms that allow them to discuss the subjects they care about most — even if those subjects might not be appropriate for the platform. So, what exactly does 304 mean? Here’s what you should know next time you see the hashtag on TikTok.

What does "304" mean on TikTok?

If you type the number 304 into a calculator and flip it upside down, it’s supposed to look like the word "h--." Whenever TikTokers are describing someone as a 304, they’re trying to say that person is a h--.

The top Urban Dictionary definition for 304 states it's “a way you can call a thot or b---h a h-- without actually calling her that.” This certainly isn’t the only codeword TikTokers use when they want to talk about topics — or use language — that could get them kicked off the app.

@xsugar101 IG 🔗 Saskia_The_Mentor 🎥 YouTube: Saskia The Mentor 🔺 sugarbabetips sugarbabelifestyle spicyaccountant 304tok FYP ♬ You Broke - YG

What are the other codewords and terms used on TikTok?

When someone on TikTok claims to be an “accountant,” it typically means that they work as an exotic dancer. "Accountants" on TikTok gain a lot of popularity by sharing their day-in-the-life videos, including how much cash they earn after performing on stage. If they were to tell their followers their real job title, they'd likely get removed from the video-sharing app.

TikTok "accountants" don’t only show off bags of cash. They also occasionally share fashion hauls of the costumes they wear on stage, makeup and hair tutorials on how to achieve their glamorous looks, and sometimes, swanky-looking pole tricks if they have poles in their homes. Many "accountants" avoid filming stage tricks at their actual job locations.

@valleygirlvalentina I love this life 💰 #fyp #304life #304 ♬ original sound - bee 🐝

"Accountants" on TikTok who only dance are quick to explain how they differ from 304s. Dancing on stage and sex work are obviously two very different things and TikTok "accountants" will be the first to explain the difference.

“SW” are the letters used by sex workers to describe their professions on TikTok. As of now, they haven’t been banned for talking about their experiences as long as they use the two discrete letters whenever they tell their stories.

Hopefully, the TikTok terms SW, accountant, and 304 should make a lot more sense now!

What is a 'thirst trap'?

Perhaps the most basic sensations known to humans are expressed by the words hungry and thirsty . Both come from Old English roots, and both are words as old as English itself. Both are also words that have been used figuratively (“hungry for knowledge,” “thirsty for attention”) for nearly as long as they have been used with their literally nourishing meanings: the Oxford English Dictionary records these figurative uses to the 12th and 9th centuries respectively.

'Thirst' and 'thirsty' have recently taken on figurative meanings that include “desperate for attention, affection, or approval.”

It shouldn’t surprise us that this shift from the literal to the figurative came so soon with these particular words. After all, expressing some kind of need or desire must be one of the earliest uses of language. The word avid , a synonym for these figurative meanings, may be accurate but seems distant and technical by comparison.

Some examples of this figurative use from around the year 1600 show us in what contexts thirsty was used:

an Emperour so ambitious, and thirsty of honour hungry and thirsty after gods word you see my sword's not thirsty for your life

In modern English, the kinds of words that typically follow thirsty for include the following:

wisdom knowledge details

Interestingly, the words typically used with thirst for are different—violent and political rather than abstract and bureaucratic:

revenge power freedom

Thirst and thirsty have more recently taken on intensified figurative meanings on social media that include “desperate for attention, affection, or approval”:

https://twitter.com/dcseifert/status/976135939012644864

Unsurprisingly—this is the internet, after all—this definition quickly extended to “desperate for romantic attention or approval of one’s attractiveness.” Use of thirsty in this way keeps avidity in the realm of the carnal, with all that such imagery entails , incorporating a sense of urgency, immediacy, and physicality. It’s a usage that goes beyond “eagerness” to words like “lust” and “greed,” which are used in some of the Urban Dictionary entries for thirst . Indeed, just as hunger and thirst are primary biological imperatives, one could say that a primary motive of social media is most simply expressed as: “look at me!”

“Look at me!” is the most basic definition of another thirst derivative on social media: the thirst trap . A refined twist on selfie culture, a thirst trap is often a photo used to entice a response, usually in the form of praise, compliments, or more explicit expressions of ardent desire. It was first defined in Urban Dictionary in 2011, with the following sober definition:

any statement or picture used to intentionally create attention or “thirst”

An early use of the term in the mainstream press also provides a useful explanation:

The GQ giants names [Rihanna] Queen of the Thirst Trap, which they define as: "the act of disingenuously posting sexy photos-while suggesting the subject of the photo is something else entirely-in an effort to elicit the lust (thirst) of followers." We like this definition. — Jess Wilson, The Mirror , 3 December 2013

This being a largely visual phenomenon, Instagram is a primary locus for the thirst trap where there’s even a hashtag, #thirsttrapthursdays. Many of these might be confidently identified as NSFW , but the term has clearly spread to have broader applications, with healthy doses of internet irony. Thirst trap is entering mainstream language and journalism:

Indeed, it seems to me that this is what is happening with the idea of the “thirst trap” — shorthand, in its way, for a woman (or Idris Elba) owning her (or his) sexuality and deploying it when, where, and how she sees fit. — Brendan O’Connor, theawl.com, 28 October 2014

Its use is now even becoming figurative itself—a metaphor on top of a metaphor—as it becomes used in ways that don’t reference a photo on social media but rather something that could or should attract attention in real life, with the term’s meaning consequently broadening, much as we now also use bandwidth to mean “mental or emotional capacity” or troll to mean “to harass or criticize” or viral to mean “suddenly popular”:

[Justin Trudeau]’s not just a thoughtful and empathetic leader, he's also an A+ thirst trap. — Jack Moore, gq.com, 1 March 2017

And, as with so much in social media, too much thirst can easily cause regret:

me: i won’t fall into another instagram thirst trap spiral me 5 minutes later: pic.twitter.com/P0Upt29CgG — Matt Bellassai (@MattBellassai) March 11, 2018

Popular Slang Searches

Slang for acid trip.

As you've probably noticed, the slang synonyms for " acid trip " are listed above. Note that due to the nature of the algorithm, some results returned by your query may only be concepts, ideas or words that are related to " acid trip " (perhaps tenuously). This is simply due to the way the search algorithm works.

You might also have noticed that many of the synonyms or related slang words are racist/sexist/offensive/downright appalling - that's mostly thanks to the lovely community over at Urban Dictionary (not affiliated with Urban Thesaurus). Urban Thesaurus crawls the web and collects millions of different slang terms, many of which come from UD and turn out to be really terrible and insensitive (this is the nature of urban slang, I suppose). Hopefully the related words and synonyms for " acid trip " are a little tamer than average.

The Urban Thesaurus was created by indexing millions of different slang terms which are defined on sites like Urban Dictionary . These indexes are then used to find usage correlations between slang terms. The official Urban Dictionary API is used to show the hover-definitions. Note that this thesaurus is not in any way affiliated with Urban Dictionary.

Due to the way the algorithm works, the thesaurus gives you mostly related slang words, rather than exact synonyms. The higher the terms are in the list, the more likely that they're relevant to the word or phrase that you searched for. The search algorithm handles phrases and strings of words quite well, so for example if you want words that are related to lol and rofl you can type in lol rofl and it should give you a pile of related slang terms. Or you might try boyfriend or girlfriend to get words that can mean either one of these (e.g. bae ). Please also note that due to the nature of the internet (and especially UD), there will often be many terrible and offensive terms in the results.

There is still lots of work to be done to get this slang thesaurus to give consistently good results, but I think it's at the stage where it could be useful to people, which is why I released it.
