BTW of course being "By the way".... IIRC is in the same category:

"If I remember* correctly".  *or recall.

These are the other most common ones:

LOL - laugh out loud  (implied that this is in response to a joke
someone made, or I am laughing as I am saying something)
ROFL or ROTFL  - Rolling on the floor laughing
ROFLMAO  or ROTFLMAO - Rolling on the floor laughing my a** (or a***,
if you're British) off.
IMO - in my opinion
IMHO  - in my humble opinion
imhotep - an Egyptian Pharaoh, not an internet shortcut!
IMNSHO - in my not so humble opinion
<g> grin - a different version of the 'smiley' :-)
