AFAIK - As far as im concerned
IMO - In my opinion
IMHO - In my honest opinion
LOl - Laugh out loud (i cant believe that ever caught on :| )

I have no idea about most though, I have a 'young hip' friend who sends me texts....saying......something, im not sure if im to dumb to understand, or not dumb enough, it appears the youth are trying to create their own language with abbreviations.

for instance, how is nyte considered a word? nite, i can understand as simple person speak, its hard lines when people have to reprogram phone dictionaries so they can communicate is stupid brain damaged speak.

IIRC: This one had me going for a little while till I worked it out.

As for this post:
