As I was making a post, this idea popped into my head..

So do what the topic says.. write as many abbreviations as you can think of. Many times lots of us go WTF (wait, that's an abbreviation too! LOL... oh and that too..O.o) with all these new abbreviations popping up. So let's gather here all the ones we know, from the most common ones till the most weird and new ones!

Post as many as you can, but always explain what they mean. Also feel free to ask for someone you saw and you don't know what it means, so others can help you. Each time you post one I'll be adding it in this list you see below, always in alphabetical order, so we can make sort of a helfpul list for people who aren't so familiar with them. I'll start with some very basic ones and feel free to add more.



asap = as soon as possible
bb = bye bye
bbl = be back later
brb = be right back
btw = by the way
cu = see you
dld = download
FTW = for the win
fyi = for your information
g2g = got to go
gtfo = get the fuck off/out
ic = I see
ilu = i love you
imo = in my opinion (and NOT emo.. this gets misinterpreted :P)
irl = in real life
lmao = laughing my ass off
lmfao = laughing my fuckin' ass off
lol = laughing out loud
np = no problem
QFTW = quote for the win
rofl = rolling on floor laughing
roflmao = rolling on floor laughing my ass off
tbh = to be honest
tfs = thanks for sharing
thx/thnx = thanks
ttyl = talk to you later
u = you (lol :P)
w/b = welcome back
wbu = what 'bout you
wtf = what the fuck

I usually use "sth" for "something".. and for "download" only "dl" not "dld".

For "thank you" there is also "ty".

Just saw the "u" for "you" up there xD there is of course also "r" for "are" xD
