What does "to wilf" mean? Apparently it means to browse webs pointlessly but I can't confirm that anywhere. Is this even an English word?

It's an acronym that means "What I am Looking For"/"What am I Looking For". Also, it's an inappropriate term comparable to MILF, so I'm not sure I'll be using it anytime soon myself.
Also a archaic variant of willow.

How is wilf inappropriate or comparable to milf, apart from rhyming with it? Milf is inappropriate (in some contexts) because of what it stands for; wilf stands for nothing even remotely inappropriate.

"Man, have you seen that chick Joe married in Vegas, she's definitely a WILF."

@JanusBahsJacquet It stands for the same as MILF with "Wife" replacing "Mother". See: Urban Dictionary. (Yay, citations.)

Oh, I see what you mean now. I thought you were talking about the “what am I looking for?” acronym being inappropriate; didn’t realise you were talking about two separate kinds of wilf.
