Quick Note on this

WTF IS this??

this simply refers to the object where the method is being invoked...

WTF IS this??

this in JavaScript allows you to decide what the function will reference when being invoked

Pro Tip: Look where the function using this is being invoked to find the true meaning of this

Binding this

.call

.apply

.bind

Creates a new function with this bound
