Can we have a sticky explaining all these new fangled internet abreviations, please mods?

Lol.
I'd rather they just weren't used. Because they're fucking stupid.
Everytime I see LMAO a little piece of me dies inside.
OMG! OMFG!
Post the ones that are troubling you and I'll try and work out what they mean.
But when I notice them next I'll be confused as hell but if I have a reference to go back to, I'll be able to work it out.
I remember staring blankly at:
IIRC: If I Recall Correctly
j/k: just kidding
ROFLMAO: Rolling On Floor Laughing My Arse Off
HTH: Happy To Help
And I thought this was a chat room:
IIRC: If I Recall Correctly
NEWAM: Not even with a mango.
Pigeon: pigeon.
TMWDTBW: The Marleys were dead to begin with.

There's a chat thing IIRC but when used in text I usually take it as If I recall correctly, which one is meant is usually clear from context.
I've also ran out of fags and I'm not tired. Grrrrrrrrr
I'm FRUSTRATED.

Well you did say.....
I feel a j/k may be needed, or tic (tongue in cheek).
Sweaty testical squelch.
